Livejournal and meta stuff

I like conversation, and more of it seems to happen on my LiveJournal than here. I think for quite a few reasons it's important to have my own space, that I own (to the extent that anyone owns a domain name), and I don't want anyone to ever have to change links to my blog ever again, so I'm not abandoning this space ... but I would like to consolidate my journals and keep comments all in one place. So, I'm wondering if it's possible to truly mirror my LJ here. Not just duplicate posts, but truly have one journal and one comments stream that shows up at more than one URL.

So, what I'm saying is, if I accidently break something while fiddling around, you'll know what I was trying to do when I electrocuted myself.

And if anyone's got any tips ... ?

  • Introduction: I'm familiar with your name from Enigma. I go by "Prime" on the chatlist. Found your blog on the interwebs.
    I use a program that mirrors all my WordPress posts to my LJ, but the "comments" links takes the commenter to the blog, where the comments ultimately appear. I can give you more details if you're interested. To see it in action, scan over my last few posts at http://notjenschiz.livejournal.com/
    It will be obvious which ones are mirrored.

  • You know, I'd heard of this WordPress plug-in, but this is the first time I've actually seen it working. It looks pretty close to what I'd want to do, only I'd prefer all comments to be posted to the LJ rather than the other way around.

    Thanks for the tip!

  • I wondered why this place was so quiet.
