There were a few reasons to do this. First, LJ seems to struggle to keep up with the times. They don&#8217;t offer the ability for automatic re-direction for mobile users, non-LJ users found it difficult to comment, and most importantly, I am paying a monthly charge for a website that I am not getting full capacity from. So I have decided that over time I will start to make greater use of my own website&#8217;s capabilities (including blog and photos) and stop paying other places to host content that I myself can host for free. In the worst case, this will give me a reason to keep my website updated.<\/p>\n<p>I actually won&#8217;t delete LJ&#8230;there is some great communities there that I still find relevant today and will continue contact with. It is just my blog will automatically post to LJ but the posts are essentially read-only now. Shortly the same thing will be done for Tumblr.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you still following along.
