1) What was the reason you began a Dreamwidth or LiveJournal account (or both)?
Volunteered for WisCon in 2007, clearly LJ was where everything was Happening. Took me a year to figure out the culture. Moved to DW on 1 May 2009.
2) How many DW or LJ communities do you subscribe to?
79! Most are evidently dormant. (DW comms never die.)
3) Do you have a favorite community or one you check out often to see what's new?
I love the questions and answers at little_details, where writers seek specifics about an infinite assortment of facts: paint manufacturing, historical Chinese tornadoes, NZ slang for three examples.
4) How did you pick your user name?
It’s a riff on my wallet name which I’ve been using it since 2001.
5) If you could change your user name, would you?
Nope.
