pauraque_bk | Livejournal Fantasies

bowdlerized reminded me that I had this lying around. It's just a list of things that LJ would do in my ideal world, regardless of whether they're technologically or logistically possible. I'm not taking the piss, just daydreaming.

In my fantasy world of infinite LJ delights:

- Fpages and lastn pages update automatically without the user refreshing.

- There is a post classification system which your friends-of can use to only see certain kinds of posts on their fpage by default. For example, your mundane friends can choose not to subject themselves to your peculiar fan fiction on a daily basis.

- There is a function to find out how many people actually read a particular entry all the way through, regardless of whether they commented.

- When you see a filtered post, you can find out who else is on the filter.

- You know when someone has filtered you off their fpage entirely.

- It's easy to set non-overlapping reading filters.

- There is an option to merge your friended users, watched comms, and feeds in your userinfo.

- http://www.livejournal.com/users/user/ocomms/ : Shows the entries of all comms of which you are a member, but are not watching.

- http://www.livejournal.com/users/user/afo/ : Shows the entries of Also Friends-Of (people who friend you but you don't friend them). Like friendsfriends, but less frightening.

- There is a plain list of all functions and where to find them. You don't have to ask another user to figure out what friendsfriends is.

- There is a search function that actually works. You can choose to search a particular LJ, or all LJs, or just your flist. Or someone else's flist. Or everything but your flist. Or...

- The month view shows the first lines of posts with no subject.

- Events automatically end with a set of formatting close-tags.

- All the sites I'm interested in have working LJ feeds.

Feel free to add on your own unreasonable LJ functionality wishes.
