Thinking of shifting to Dreamwidth

[alias_sqbr]

So LJ has finally crossed the line for me by not only having pop up ads which infect people's computers with a virus but infecting one of my friends in particular.

I have thus decided I will at some point swap over to cross-posting the stuff that currently goes in alias_sqbr from alias_sqbr (yes, keeping lj comments enabled).

But before I can do that I need to know: is there any easy to switch between two dreamwidth accounts? Preferably one that works in Safari.

*Tests out the crossposting footnote thing, which I only just figured out*

ahhh, flash ads. I have installed flash block in firefox now.

[alias_sqbr]

Yes, I imagine you would have :/

I don't even have flash enabled on Firefox.

If I really need flash, I switch browsers for that one page.

The killer app for me is "reading LJs via DW's page", when they get that going, I'll probably jump.

You can enable and disable flash from the Tools/Addons/Plugins dialog, so you can only enable it when necessary.

To Sophie's question, unfortunately Safari doesn't support multiple profiles, and the Safari site-specific browser feature got cut before Safari 4 was released. http://fluidapp.com/ uses WebKit, but not the reset of Safari. For Firefox, creating multiple profiles is the easiest way http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles

The Firefox addon ljlogin works for Dreamwidth.
