LJ/Twitter: Your New OTP

Automatic lj-cuts
One of the most common complaints we get is that even your best friends don't do you the courtesy of using the lj-cut on long entries. We consulted with a cutting-edge market research firm and concluded that no one really wants to read more than 140 characters about what their friends are doing. And with our new automatic lj-cut, you won't have to! From now on, all those wordy entries on your Friends Page will automatically be cut at the 140-character sweet spot.

Friends Page redesign project from [livejournal.com profile] news

*sigh*
Bzzt. Bad timing LJ.
April Fool's Day isn't for another 4 hours yet over in the US, y'know?

I'd give them more slack, but their own post is timestamped as being posted at 7pm on March 31st. They could've at least artificially dated it to be on the 1st.

Ha, yeah. Slight time fail for half the world.

Actually, I have to laugh at the next paragraph there:

Have you ever wondered what your friends were up to when you weren't watching their every move? Would you like to see, in real time, what they're doing on LiveJournal? Well, now you can. We've added notifications to your Friends Page! Whenever one of your friends uploads a new userpic, adds or removes friends, comments on an entry, changes a setting, or uploads a picture to Scrapbook, this information will be added as an entry on your Friends Page.

Yup. Although, I commented to the entry and people are trying to lambaste me because it April 1st that time in Russia. *rolls eyes* It's not April where the poster is even. *annoyed*

Ah well, I have better games to play.

But you already can set up for email notifications of new posts and new icons for your friends! XD

Yup. Someone tried the same with me, but when one is having a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent, it's fairly easy to silence them with reminders of their own stupidity. ;)

I'm so not shy anymore. Oh, wait. Never was. Carry on! ^_~

Yeah, I pointed out their logic flaws, but comments keep coming with the same points, and I just don't care enough to respond anymore.
Internet wank knows not silence.

Hahaha. I am.

Of course not! If they didn't have something to spin about, it wouldn't be Livejournal. ;)

TRUE!

Your icon just killed me.
