Hmm well that's straightforward enough

I thought of a couple of things I might wibble about on here today, and decided they were probably TMI for anyone but ewx. So today I created a Friends Group with only me and ewx in it, daft perhaps if I used this journal primarily for dissemination, given he's sitting right here next to me and I could just talk to him, but at least it gives me proof of concept if I ever want to use friends groups for anything else. And despite the fact many people do seem to use LJ for telling people what's going on in their lives it is a journal still. I might not mind people reading some bits of it but I'm still primarily writing for myself rather than for other people. So it's not completely stupid.

The "private" option isn't pointless!

I totally agree that it's pointless for writing anything that's supposed to actually be private, but for making test posts to your LJ without thereby spamming all your friends with inane "testing 1 2 3" type wibble, it's invaluable. I've made more private posts to my LJ than any other kind so far. Deleted them all five minutes later, of course, after reading them and making sure they made sense :-)

Given the rubbish I write in my lj sometimes... :)
