(no subject)

OK, I've got a journal over at IJ now. Nothing is up yet, not even much on my profile. I suppose eventually I'll get everything transfered there, but for now most of my fic is archived at Skyehawke, OWL, or Hex Files, so I'm not too fussed about it.

My main thing? Eventually the same thing could happen at IJ as LJ. I'm not saying it to be pessimistic, I'm being realistic. So LJ isn't going to get any more money from me, but I'm comfy here, so I'm not sure I'll abandon LJ entirely either.

You're absolutely right - until fandom has a site that is only for fandom, we're at the mercy of LJ/GJ/IJ or wherever else we end up.

Yeah, and the problem is, wherever the fandom site is hosted, the host will be subject to their national laws. US, Canada, Australia, wherever.

I'm not sure what the solution is, then. Back to photocopies & handing out at Cons, like the old Star Trek days?
