…
I noticed a odd line through a user as I was browsing, and when I clicked on it, I got a message about how the user had 30 days to mark their journal undeleted or it would be nuked.
And I’m very dissapointed, to tell the truth – I kinda hoped LJ would hold onto content indefinately. I mean, disk is cheap enough..
I wonder if there’s any easy way to download a backup copy of my journal. Not that there’s anything that important here, but just..
Can’t sleep.

1) The delete after 30 days thing only kicks in after the owner of said journal asks for it to be deleted. Usually, this is because they’ve gotten in a major flame war with someone or otherwise embarrassed themselves mightily with it. Or else, they want that persona to disappear altogether — not be held onto indefinatly. And, LJ does give you a month to change your mind.
2) Yes, you can export your journal in a variety of formats. Browse the faq for howtos. I’m overdue in doing mine, and you really want to every month or so or else it becomes a giant pain in the rear.
