GreatestJournal loads halfway and sits there.

JournalFen doesn't even pretend to try to load.

InsaneJournal got the closest, and even that fell down on the captcha -- I get no image.

And all of the backup-to-local programs I'm seeing are Windows or Mac.

What's a girl to do?

What OS are you using?

[kellan_the_tabby]

Ubuntu Hardy Heron. Hm, that would have helped, huh?

Try one of these?

[cathyn.livejournal.com]

A couple say "platform independent", that might help...

may take some work to use, tho.

Also, it doesn't look like LJ is about to vanish.

Well, that's good, at least.

Still going to want to back up at some point, mind you. Using this as much as 'well bugger, s'pose I should do that' as anything else.

thats my theory...
trust in Allah, but tie up your camel

i dont think anything will happen, but backups are always a good idea

[anda.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. I've been using LJArchive for years, and this was a good time to hit that 'sync' button.

Try LJ Charm: http://ljcharm.sf.net/

You might want to use 1.7.0, though, instead of 1.8.0, 'cause I'm having trouble getting 1.8.0 to work correctly.

[montuos]

There is also 1.9.0 and apparently some patches somewhere. Mind you, I still can't get it to work right, either. :-/

I wouldn't worry too much right now... The first story to break on this greatly overhyped the lay-offs (and has since been invisibly edited to half their former numbers, which they apparently just pulled out of a random orifice). LJ is one of the most popular blogging sites in Russia, and they're now owned by a Russian company. I don't think they're going anywhere soon, just tying up loose ends over here. *HUGS* :)
