No, really. This isn't funny anymore. Who IS this?

It's me.  Honest.  I just have a quick question:  dan_ad_nauseam has set up an InsaneJournal account.  InsaneJournal has the same code as LJ, supposedly.  Do any of my clever techie friends have suggestions on how I could add his InsaneJournal account to my LJ friends page?  When I pull up "Manage your friends" I don't see any way to do it.

In other news, I made my first Wikipedia edit today.  A statue of the Flying Spagetti Monster has been put up on the Crossville Tennessee county courthouse lawn (thanks to Dan for the link to the link to the link), and I felt this important landmark should be added to the "points of interest" section of the Crossville, Tennessee Wikipedia page.  If *I* went to Crossville, *I'd* stop to see it.

I don't know if my edit will be allowed to stand.  I guess we'll see.

It works! Adding danadnausemij puts his insane journal posts up on my friends page! They don't have quite the same timestamps as they do on insane journal, but I can live with that.

However I think when I comment on them in lj it does not get ported across to ij. So I'll have to actually click on the posts themselves to comment. But mostly what I was worried about was missing them entirely, so the feed is a big help.

Thank you!

That is correct, you have to click in the IJ link and go comment on IJ for him to see them. But at least you'll know they're there. And in theory there's a way to use your LJ password to be "registered" over there (with OpenID) but I don't know how to do that yet.

Oooh, I can help with that.

You go over there to comment, and click the OpenID radio button.

When it says enter URL, you enter your url for your livejournal page. (Probably for you it would be http://technoshaman.livejournal.com).

Type in your response and click "post comment."

If you're already logged into livejournal you see a lj-type page saying "Grant identity validation? i.e., that such and such a site is asking to confirm your identity, do you want lj to pass your identity on. You can pick yes always (which I think means always for this site), or yes just this time, or no.

If you click "yes just this time" it posts, with your lj URL on it for your name. I'm not sure what happens with the other options.
