LIVEJOURNAL'S BEEN SOLD TO THE RUSSIANS:

Cue bad jokes about "journal posts you!" now.

On a serious note, I'm really sad at what Livejournal's become since I joined four years ago. In fact, my liveversary is coming up soon, on the 20th.

Also, here's what's wrong with LJ's new owners, and why you may want to worry:

Journal Post You! I can just see that on a LOLCat picture now.

And I couldn't resist, sorry.

Also, what in the hell. Money?! Bah. Capitlisim...

I think it may have been a lolcat picture before... heh.

Well, now that lj's in Russia, I guess Communism's what we have to worry about now ;)

LiveJournal has been passed around more than a hooker on dollar night. I can see this being really awful actually. They'll probably end up selling user interests to 3rd parties and such.

Looks like SUP teamed up with Last.fm to do that already.

Apparently, there's something about them switching journal data to offshore servers, and although there's supposed to be an opt-out (as in, you can have your journal stay on American servers in America) no one I've seen can figure out how to do that.

Also, SUP is a really dumb name. I keep thinking of "sup dawg?"
