So I'm curious: does anyone from LiveJournal have/or is interested in getting a Dreamwidth account?

The reasons why I have one are listed in my first Dreamwidth entry.

And, thus far, it's not too shabby. They don't have everything up and running yet (like they don't have a logged in home page), but because they apparently used the same code that LiveJournal uses, almost everything looks exactly like LJ.

If you want one, try logging in through OpenID and see if they give you one. If not, I can always request to get invite codes. :)

I have one because I signed in to the website with OpenID and they sent me an invite code, which is the only way to currently get an account (unless you buy an account). I'm also interested in seeing if the fandoms that claim their going to make a mass exodus to the more "fandom friendly" Dreamwidth are actually going to go through with it.

Here's my Dreamwidth journal: mia_alexandria. It's pretty much the same premise as this one: real life and fandom stuff, but the user name is the ideal name that I would like for this journal.

Since I haven't heard anything yet from a friend of mine, should I spear head this coming to USF next year?

Discuss. :D

[EDIT] I talked to Nicole about it and she says, "No. Like only 5 people would play." :(

Also, thoughts on the models chosen for the May cover of Vogue to be "Faces of the Moment":
» Liya Kebede: No
» Natalia Vodianova: Not so much anymore
» Anna Jagodzinska: Yes
» Isabeli Fontana: Yes
» Lara Stone: Eh...kinda...
» Raquel Zimmerman: She's relevant, but not as popular as she used to be
» Caroline Trentini: Love her, but her career is not as strong as it used to be
» Natasha Poly: Yes, yes, 1000 times yes
» Jourdan Dunn: Yes

I don't think A. Dubs did enough research into the strength and relevancy of these models' careers.

Some models who I, personally, think should have been considered:
» As much as I can't stand her, Karlie Kloss with her bad runway walk
» Tanya Dzhileva
» Where the hell was Lily Donaldson? (Although she may have not been considered because she was on the models cover last year. Same goes for Sasha)
» Du Juan
» Ai Tominaga (She walked the most shows out of all of the models on that cover, save for Natasha and maybe Jourdan and Anna, this past season)
» Hanne Gaby Odiele
» Iris Strubegger (Although she sometimes resembles a man, she's starting to gain a lot of popularity
» Magdalena Frackowiak (She walked just as many shows as Natasha and is starting to get a lot of print work)

I understand that the industry is going through a phase where the older models are the thing right now, but honestly? Those models, as great as they may be, aren't a great representation of who's popular right now. [/EDIT]
