Testing cross-posting

So dreamwidth's cross-poster for the web interface now seems to be available. Dreamwidth users can go here: http://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/settings/?cat=othersites to add other journal services to post to when they post at dreamwidth. It looks like up to 5 accounts on other sites. Then at the bottom of the entry posting form, you get this set of options:

http://jmtorres.dreamhosters.com/images/dreamwidthpostingoptions.gif

This is my first test of the cross-poster. I'm using the <lj-cut> tag instead of dreamwidth's <cut> tag at this time because <lj-cut> still works on on DW--as far as I know, all the old LJ tags work on DW, although DW's tags are cooler (in a DW user tag, you can, optionally, specify what journal service the username is on). Hopefully in time the cross-poster will be able to translate DW's tags into the tags of services we're cross-posting to. That would be awesome!

Also I'm hoping that eventually I'll get to write my own custom text for the link back to the DW entry from LJ.

Right, let's hit the button and see how this baby works!

ETA: Oh, hey, so the LJ-cut doesn't work at all on cross-posted! *pause*

Right, so, making that img a link instead of an embed for the courtesy, since the lj-cut doesn't work./ETA
