Dreamwidth WikiDreamwidth FAQNotable Dreamwidth ReadingWhy Dreamwidth?I’m in love with the
DW wishlists. If it’s something they think they can’t do, they explain in a language that makes sense as to why they are unable to do it.

Check it out for yourself. Don't rely on your friendslist to tell you what it's about. (Even though that’s kind of what I’m doing. I SAW THAT EYEROLL.)
How do I get an invite right now?Luck of the draw or find someone who has an invite code. Dreamwidth is in closed beta right now and will be until April 30th. What they really need is people who will use the site, test the severs, poke at crap for fun, add to their very small
available layouts. Even give ideas on how to make the site easier to use. Not just people who wish to park their name.
I really don't think people are going to leave LJ in mass exodus any time soon. It didn’t happen when JournalFen showed up and it didn’t happen when Insane journal popped up, hell even scriblit which people were really worried about, didn’t happen there either. People who DO leave LJ for DW wouldn't be abandoning you. It’s not even the main goal of the Dreamwidth to make it so you have to pick one. They want to create something that people can live at and use in conjunction with LJ.
This is a quote from Denise that I got off of the DW-mailing list.
“One thing I think people are having problems with is the persistent belief that we *want* people to abandon LJ for Dreamwidth. We are obviously happy if people choose to! But that isn't our primary goal here. We don't think "LJ" and "Dreamwidth" is an either/or; we think it's an "and". We are doing incredible amounts of work to make sure that people can move over and still continue to participate on LJ, and we expect that the majority of our userbase will continue to maintain accounts on both services for at least the foreseeable future.”
And if you were wondering I'm
gwen over there. Feel free to friend with your OpenID or journal. I also started a
_fandom_icons_ and there are a few SPN/RPS comms that I'm helping mod.
