[LJ] Buy-out. Post for debating now open.
Given that there's sure to be some muttering on my friends-list about the newly announced sale of LJ to SUP (the company that's been running it in Russia for the last year), I hereby declare this a post on which you can discuss it, should you wish to - left open for linking and debate.
Personally, I think it could be a good thing, to have LJ go back to being run by an LJ-specific company, rather than being viewed mostly as a way to get advertising to people.
Even if I mutter about the description of LJ as "a social networking" product - which would at least explain SixApart's attempts to FaceSpace it.
For more information about the buyout, new communities![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
lj_2008 and lj_policy have been created - the latter being a discussion board about LJ's policies, I believe with Brad Fitzpatrick on the policy committee again ...
