LJ book

I mentioned this to bridgetminerva, so I'm reposting it:

In addition to our regular posts, many of us log stuff under private entries in our LJs that we use for reference or tracking. If LJ were to go kablooey, we'd lose all that. So here's the answer:
There's a powerful little tool online called LJBook (www.ljbook.com) that enables you to export the contents of your blog to PDF format on the basis of a user-selected date range. You can also elect to include comments and other options. The tool requires you to provide a password to your blog so it can pick up the filtered and locked posts: you can either trust the site when it says it expires the password shortly after you generate the book file, or you can chane your password for the quick duration. All things considered, it's a spiff tool, and an incredibly simple option for archiving the contents of your journal in a format that isn't reliant on the LiveJournal systems. I try to do my backups regularly.

cool meme

gaaked from various friends:
What's your sexual style? Take the sexual style quiz!

Figure out what your interactive style is, according to Mosher, who found a way of grouping people's hopes and experience about sex into three different categories. While the quiz does produce a result suitable for posting in your journal, it is also producing results for someone's graduate work, as part of a study (most people actually studying sex in grad school fall into one particular style, and running the quiz more broadly is producing interesting results).

So take the quiz, if you are over 13, and don't mind having your demographic data recorded about something kind of private. Help a friend, or friend of a friend do some science. The quiz is very short, and you can follow a link to an informative essay explaining what it's all about.
