An awesome vid, plus I'm on Dreamwidth!

Got this from MGK.com.

As well, I got a Dreamwidth membership. Remember how I mentioned that you could get an account with an OpenID? it turns out everyone who did that got an invite to the beta.

So, who else is giving Dreamwidth a try?

Well, not everyone! I have a DW account with OpenID, and no invite from them. Maybe you were randomly selected?

Did you confirm your email address? It seems to indicate that everyone who did would be getting an invite.

If not, I can put you down for an invite should I get any.

You should here the Mario version of Still Alive. Now there's a mobile phone ring tune.

Oh, that would be delightful as well. Do you know where it is off the top of your head?

There appear to be several version now, but I'm almost certain that's the one we found first. Its so twinkly ;)

I looked it up from this post, and was intrigued... but I don't really understand what the real draw is - what's so great about it that it's worth migrating over to from LJ?

[thebitterguy]

Because it's beautiful. And that's a rather rude question, really.

Uh, what?

I'm sorry I seem to have offended you, but I'm frankly confused as to how. Perhaps I missed some intrinsic link that you had with the project, and therefore you felt I was personally insulting you. Even that's a bit of a stretch. How is admitting my own ignorance about the market appeal and asking for clarification (albeit in a colloquial, offhand way) terribly rude?

I don't think I know anyone who'd be offended by my asking "what's so great" about a piece of software. Even a piece of software they wrote. They'd just vigorously defend their software and tell me why I was wrong for being so dismissive, which is what I was expecting. Maybe my friends are far more forgiving than the norm.

Please (in all seriousness) enlighten me as to how/why you feel my question was rude, so I may behave in a less offensive manner should I comment again your journal.

Added you - so far all I have set up is my knitting journal (knittykat), but may have a personal journal eventually.
