Dreamwidth cross-posting

[dbskyler]

Okay, I am trying out cross-posting from Dreamwidth. Is this working? Hello?

Not sure how much cross-posting I will be doing though, to be honest. I guess it will depend upon how easy this is (does look pretty easy so far), and how much time I end up spending on Dreamwidth vs. LJ. From what I can tell, the LJ Doctor Who communities seem to be far more active. Anyone know any communities like sarahjane_fic and doctoreleven on Dreamwidth?

Further to my comment at LJ:

I don't know if there might be some more specialized Who-fandom comms that have started up recently. You could try an interest search - apparently the DW Site Search is fairly powerful - and if you strike out there, try create_my_comm and see if there's enough common interest to set up comms for Eleventy and SJA fans over here based on doctoreleven and sarahjane_fic.

Thanks for the suggestions! Searching for "doctor who" interest turns up doctorwho, doctor_who and some torchwood comms, plus others that seem to never have been updated. doctorwho appears to be the most active.

I might try to instigate a similar comm to sarahjane_fic, we'll see.

(And damn it, I tried to make those comm links, i.e. the DW equivalent of "lj user = doctorwho", but it's not working. I thought that the code was the same as on LJ, except one just had to type "user" instead of "lj user". But obviously I'm doing something wrong, so I reverted back to plain text to get rid of the [Unknown site tag]s that showed up in my preview.)

Ah! It's user name=(name of comm). I think there's a good newbie guide linked from the official Dreamwidth FAQ that mentions this and a few other markup changes.

Aha, thank you!
