Livejournal - cross- posting from Blogger

ONLY NICE THINGS

22:36 / 02.07.04

Hello darlings. I've just surrendered and got mysen a livejournal, if only so that I can say "you are a wanker" to people without seeming to be an anonymous hit'n'runner. I was wondering, since I am unlikely to contribute to it proper, whether there was a decently automatic way to update it from my blog, reproducing or excerpting the text? Invisible_Al - you do this, doncha? Is this code or handicraft?

No. Not automatically. Well, you could do something very very geeky I suppose.

LJ users can subscribe to a Blogger blog, though, via the RSS feed.

What's your username, Haus? Coz I was just doing a couple of searches and I'm pretty sure this isn't you.

Indeed not, although I wish it was. My username is spyinthehaus.

Yep, set up an Atom/RSS feed for your blog. You need to do that anyway of course to stop my wrath. Then go to LJ and subscribe to that Atom/RSS feed, it'll create a fun new LJname to share w/ all your friends. Check out my LJ profile I suspect you can suspect the username) to see how it's done.

So what did you do in the end, Haus? Are you just cut'n'pasting your blog entries into Lj?

is there any extra content on either format?

One line, so far. I will start using LJ to bitch about my friends at any moment, however, as is traditional.

I think you need someone who has a paid livejournal account to subscribe to your RSS feed.

Ah here is the entry in the FAQ
http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=137

Once it's been created anyone can subscribe. So all you need to do is set up the RSS feed, then kick someone with a paid account to do the rest.

How rude, I have no friends.

Weep for me Barbelith and Scream for my Donington!

Livejournal has been cool these past few weeks.

Livejournal's been a useless unreliable piece of shit these past few weeks.

Haus, who are you on Flickr?

I really have to get round to writing a review of Flickr one of these days, but the buggers keep adding new things.
