Now that you've imported your LJ journal to Dreamwidth, you might have noticed that you have some "people" on your profile of the form "lj-username.livejournal.com". Those are OpenID accounts, and by default they're attached to imported comments. If you've ever posted a comment on a journal that was imported here, you have one of these too.

You'd probably rather see your comments as coming from "you", not "you.livejournal.com". Fortunately, you can claim them -- so long as you still have your LJ account to authenticate to. Then they'll show up as coming from "you" like they should, and you'll have the usual ownership rights (edit, delete) on them.

Here's the documentation. Basically, you log into LJ, tell DW "that's me", wait an hour, and click on the link they email you. That's it.

SCA friends,

Did you just migrate here from LJ? Are you trying to find your friends?

Have you been here a while and would like to connect with our new immigrants?

Either way, please leave a comment here to announce your presence if you want to be found. If you changed your user name from LJ to DW, be sure to mention that. Let's make it as easy as possible to rebuild the SCA network over here.

And if you're already somewhat connected here on DW, please boost the signal!

(And if you know of somebody who's already doing this, please let me know and I'll update this post to point to that one.)
