bethbethbeth: Won't somebody think of the fannish children? - if Fandom were to up stakes and relocate, I know myself well enough to recognize that I'd probably go with it. What I wouldn't want to do, however, is go where underage fans weren't welcome. -
stewardess: Why Did Warriors For Innocence Find Only 500 Sinners? - A common question I heard May 30th was, "Why are there still so many people/comms with interests such as rape and incest if they were 'purged'?" -
morgandawn: Fan Run Vid Shows/Fan Run Conventions - What you should expect from a fan run vid show? -
caras_galadhon: LiveJournal and the Case of the IPO-- - Currently, there is only speculation to back up the IPO rumours. There is no hard fact. And even if LJ moves towards going public or being acquired, there is no reason for us to all assume that it will mean the death of fandom on LJ. -
alixtii: I Aim to Misbehave - You know what what? In some ways, I think I miss the days when everyone in fandom thought fanfic was illegal. -
mecurtin: Strikeout07, 6A, and the need for a narrative - If anybody -- especially 6A or LJ -- doesn't want us to use this narrative to understand what happened and why, *they must come up with another narrative*. And it must be at least as clear and circumstantial as stewardess's -
mecurtin: Other social networking sites - What with one thing and another, I've been wondering What Gones On at the other big social networking sites. -
damned_colonial: Weaning yourself off LJ: a guide for fans - I'm working on a series of articles on how to wean yourself off LJ if, in the wake of Strikethrough '07, you're a bit dubious about keeping LJ as your central repository for fanfic/art/vids. -
penknife: A couple of thoughts about Recent Events - I don't think it's time to move yet -- right now, this minute, I think moving would cause more damage to fandom than it would be worth. I'm not saying that opinion won't change. -
