the downside of the pledge to crosspost.

[dira]

I find myself not wanting to post little things I otherwise might, because then I will have to endure the Herculean task of copying and pasting and retyping the subject line and hitting 'post' all over again. My life, so hard.

Ahem.

Soooo this morning in the shower I started scripting Dean and Castiel having a minor theological debate while naked. (Spoiler: Castiel wins.) I feel a lot worse about the theology than the nudity. Um, not that I'm writing it or anything.

Also, in case you were wondering, the current preferred translation for Gideon Bibles is the NKJV.


ALSO! It is now middle-to-late April, which MEANS! NHL PLAYOFF SEASON!

The Caps lost last night, probably because I was not able to watch the game (curse my cable package!), but I will attempt to do better for the Red Wings' first game tonight. As soon as I figure out what to wear (obv. what I wore last season worked, at least for last season--but this year I've had some luck wearing the jersey! I JUST DON'T KNOW.)

Also also also: thanks to grrliz who breaks it all down into very small words with illustrations and arrows, I now have a pretty pretty journal layout over at Dreamwidth! Where by pretty I of course mean black text on white with some little black outlines. Mmmm minimalism. Also, Oh God I wish it were that easy to make my website look that nice. Aaaagh, website. ETA: Actually, I guess it's gray on white, isn't it? Anyway.

Also^4, all my peeps who watch Criminal Minds (especially those who spent last week's ep clutching their hearts for REID OMG) should go watch the beautiful Reid vid, Day Carry Night by tearful_eye. REEEEEEEID. And also a really well done vid with a strong sense of motion to a slow-paced song, but mostly, REEEEEEEEID.

Okay. I think that's everything I'd been wanting to post. Now off to hit Post twice.

Xposting hacks

[zvi]

If you use Semagic, you can set it up to automatically crosspost. I bookmarked some tutorials at http://delicious.com/zvi_likes_tv/dreamwidth+howto

You can set Semagic up under WINE in Mac and Linux, if your computer isn Windows.

Alternately (if you have a paid LJ account), you can post by e-mail, and send it to both services at once. If you use gmail, you can set up a canned response to contain the headers you'll want to use. Other e-mail services handle signatures in a more elegant way that might be useful.

...There you go introducing logic into the conversation. :)

(I've never used Semagic or post-by-email, and at this point figuring out either of them seems like even more hassle than manually crossposting for a couple of weeks, but... that might just be me. *g*)

Re: Xposting hacks

:) Well, I'm doubleposting w/ my-not-as-elegant-as-semagic linux client until crossposting w/ the website comes through. You just seemed sort of unhappy about it, so I thought I'd point out the alternatives.

I also feel the need to point out that, apparently, google really strongly associates "dira" with "hockey", because all the ads but 2 in my gmail are hockey ones and the More about... links are NHL Hockey Rumors, Replica Jerseys, NHL Standings 2007, and NHL Stanley Cup Records :D

Well, I guess the NHL HOCKEY YAY part of my post was probably the easiest thing for Google to cope with. :)

*gives up and downloads Semagic*
