Free LJ Woes

[intertext]

Livejournals ads on free accounts just got exponentially more annoying. That's not going to affect me for my personal blog - I have a paid account - but it does affect my choices about what I ask my students to use. I would use Dreamwidth, but for the necessity to send invites; this gets problematical with classes of 28, sometimes several in a term :(

Anyone else using blogs in the classroom? Any suggestions?

Via the network, hoping that's okay

Actually, DW will happily make a "promo" code for anyone who wants to bring a group of people over -- it's a single code that allows multiple people to create accounts.

If you want one, just e-mail accounts@dreamwidth.org or open a Support request in the Account Payments category. Should be no problem at all.
