A bulk post shredding tool for LJ

[crazyscot]

As a visual protest, I wrote a tool that bulk-shreds the contents of an LJ.

In case anybody wishes to join me, I have shared the tool. ljshred@github | just the script. You'll need Python 2.7. Command-line only. No warranty. Use at own risk. May contain nuts.

I may or may not delete my LJ now that I have run this, but for the time being you can see the effect over on http://crazyscot.livejournal.com/ .

Certainly looks doable to me. Through their APIs you can download posts from both sites, match them up, then replace LJ posts with links to DW.

Uh... *looks blank* :D

Thanks, but I think I'll take a pass then! No clue how I'd put that into practice; probably quicker just to delete the LJ.
