1. Why did you sign up for Dreamwidth?
I signed up not long after Dreamwidth premiered due, in large part, to the Strikethrough kerfluffle over on Livejournal. I'd been keeping journals on other sites as back ups (in the event of deletion), but was never very good about using them due to issues with crossposting. I didn't/don't want to completely give up my Livejournals. My main one is 10 years old this year and I have people on my friend's list who've been there since near the beginning whom I still like to keep up with.
And my fandom one? Fandom is still so much more active on LJ that it's more lucrative to play in that sandbox.
Anyway...Dreamwidth took care of the "fears" of deletion (being fandom friendly) and its cross-posting ability took care of my need to keep my LJ(s).
2. Why did you choose your journal name? What does it mean?
