still feeling around here
I just realized that I've got some old flocked-not-filtered posts with my name and other personal information in them, so I'm going to take most folks off the grants-access list until I finish going through my imported lj entries and deleting/unflocking as appropriate. (I'm already in mid-2003! Or, to put it another way, I'm only in mid-2003!)
And after that, I dunno. I'm still trying to think through how I plan to use dreamwidth, and what it means to the grants-access front. I understand "subscribing," and I know what I want to subscribe to. But grants-access -- well, I'm not planning to flock anything, really. So, what does it mean to grant access to something that isn't there? And why should I be deciding who I would, theoretically, let read about my work day, if I were to write about said work day, when I plan to do no such thing? So I'm not sure what grants-access means to me.
I'd appreciate thoughts on this, btw, because I'm trying to figure out how to use grants-access, and what it means to other people to be granted access.
ETA: for full disclosure and all, I do filter. Usually either away from someone (see: birthdays) or to someone in particular (see: cooperative projects, reminders, etc).
