LJ news

Quickie post, since this is a busy work day, but this wasn't announced in the LJ News feed and it looks like good news:

By way of [livejournal.com profile] kishenehn by way of [livejournal.com profile] songdogmi: Livejournal gets a new CEO.

The new CEO used to work at Google, Microsoft, and other big name tech companies, and doesn't want LJ to become another tumblr. Sounds like this could be a good thing!

Edit: [livejournal.com profile] tedwords reports that his book, Pictures of You, is free on Amazon the next five days. My review of it here.

Yeah, I was thinking of the change as well, but at least we have an option to use the old style and no word that it's only good for a limited time.

"Fingers crossed" is my best feeling for it. Hopeful, but not confident.
