So, now that I've got this crossposting thing set up, I think I feel a bit ambivalent about it. Bear with me all of you who figured out how to wrangle DW and LJ a long time ago. :)

Apparently, if you delete an entry on DW that you crossposted somewhere else, it automatically deletes the entry on the other site, which I don't think I like.

And I realize I imported my LJ stupidly. I should have upgraded to a paid acount and *then* imported so that all my icons would be imported to DW. Now, I'll have to add each icon manually once I upgrade, but if I really want DW to be a backup of my LJ, that's what I'll need to do. I wonder; if the icon exists on each account, does the crosspost show the icon selected or does it always just show the default?

I also don't know what to do about commenting. I've noticed that you guys do a variety of stuff: comment on both sites, comment only on LJ, comment only on DW. If I want DW to preserve what I'm doing in case LJ goes kablooey, it only makes sense to either have comments only on DW or on both posts. Opinions?

Anything else I should know about using both journaling platforms? Advice? Remember, technology is not necessarily intuitive for Lorraine. :)
