DW Newsletter High Points
http://dw-news.dreamwidth.org/32702.html
- Community Importing is available for all accounts(previously being paid accounts only), providing they are the maintainer/admin of both comms.
Hey, look, they went ahead and did what they said they were gonna do. Nifty
- Claiming Open IDs and integrating them into your existing DW account is explained in detail.
A bit of a delicate procedure, but totally worth it. Awesomesauce, basically. ♥
- No-invite account creation will remain open so long as the ratio of paid users is maintained at a sustainable level.
YAY! Meaning that so many people love DW they're buying paid accounts right off the bat, and enough people are signing up that they can keep a steady ratio! (if you haven't already signed up, LJ flist, now's the perfect opportunity...*cough* ;)
- DW will not be deleting any "abandoned" accounts i.e. if your account has nothing in it, then that's okay, they won't delete itlike some others around here, with minor exceptions.
If you've claimed an account on DW at some point in the past but have not used it, because of whatever, you don't have to worry about it being purged to reclaim usernames
- And loads of other updates and explanations! Check it out!
For those who have recently made a DW account or are looking at one, I highly recommend this tool, which looks at your LJ flist and finds anyone on DW with the same username. It wouldn't work with users like me, who've got a different name on DW vs. LJ, but for most people, it'll bring back good results.

Speaking of which, I think I need to write 4,000 words this weekend...uh oh.
no subject
...I am so sorry for you. I don't know what all I'm gonna have to work on, seeing as I'm purposefully avoiding looking at my schedules, but I know I have plenty to do in fandom alone.
I want there to be 28 hours in the day. Or at least 30. That would make things easier.

Maybe I will declare that if I write my 4,000 words on the weekend, I will do my DW account on Monday night.

Sounds like a good plan!
