Vaguely annoying
Dec. 17th, 2006 03:06 pmOkay, so I'm back to remembering just what it was about xJournal that makes it a pain in the neck versus Semagic. Like UltraKiSS for using the Kisekae Ningyou doll sets (versus DirectKiSS), maybe I should just use Windows for things like that don't have a decent equivalent for the Mac-half. What a pain, though.
xJournal:
-Once you post to a community, you can only post to your own journal after that-- you can't change the option.
-There are no security settings for screening comments.
-There is no location area to type in
-There is no "tag memory," where the program remembers recently-typed tags, or downloads a list of the tags already in use by the journal being posted to
These are minor annoyances which I happened to have not even THOUGHT about with Semagic. I totally took the wonderfulness that is Semagic for granted.
Also, I took the Myers-Brigg's personality test again, because it's become something of a fandom meme. Do shippers in your fandom think alike? Do fans of X character all think alike? Do they have the same four-letter personality code?
The first time I took the test (today), I got an ESTP; the second time (on a different site, with a slightly different format to the questions), I got an ISFJ. "I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure." Why don't you find the quiz (it's everywhere) and tell me what YOU are! I suppose I should probably read through all the descriptions and figure out what I am from that, rather than taking the test a bazillion times and working out some sort of crazy mathematical-psychological average.
But if I had to decide between the first two, which do YOU think sounds more like me:
ESTP: Flexible and tolerant, they take a pragmatic approach focused immediate results. Theories and conceptual explanations bore them – they want to act energetically to solve the problem. Focus on the here-and-now, spontaneous, enjoy each moment that they can be active with others. Enjoy material comforts and style. Learn best through doing.
ISFJ: Quiet, friendly, responsible, and conscientious. Committed and steady in meeting their obligations. Thorough, painstaking, and accurate. Loyal, considerate, notice and remember specifics about people who are important to them, concerned with how others feel. Strive to create an orderly and harmonious environment at work and at home.
