LJ Conversion Utilities

[muscadine]

Maybe you all know about these already, but I didn't. Seen in sophiaserpentia's comments:
LiveJournal Backup Toolkit - converts to text and various blog formats
LJ Book, gads_ljbook - converts to PDF file. Sweet! You can make 1 complete "book," or create yearbooks, although unless you are a donor you can only create 1 PDF book per hour. Apparently this service will be incorporated into LJ soon.

When I DLed and installed the LJ Backup Toolkit, it didn't work, I got an "application failed to properly initialize" error (or some BS like that) so I can't comment on that tool

As for the LJ Book -- I'm not particularly interested in having all of my entries (1000+ of them) glommed into one monster PDF file that will probably be too large for my computer to open.

However, I'll watch the comments on this entry and see if any other suggestions come up.

I just added some info about LJ Book's LJ community. Apparently the LJ Book system is going to be integrated into the LJ site proper in the next few months. You'll be able to make 1 book per month, which makes me wonder if they won't pare it down so you can make a "book" of 1 month instead of 1 year. Although I still don't think it's what you're looking for. However, I found this link on the community page:

It's still in beta, but might be worth looking into.

lj_nifty is always a good place to find out about things like that.
