Sure enough, that's just what it was ... the posts are federating. Whee!

And really, a half-hour lag for a new account to start bridging isn't unreasonable ... expectation-setting is key. But of course that means that the exepctation-setting is complex, and people want something simple. II's a […]

Thanks for the answer. It sounds as if an account over there will still be of some value, in case posters refuse to bridge.

Personally I find it useful to have an account over there -- not just because of the bridging factor, but also to be able to take advantage of custom feeds and starter packs. I already have a zillion accounts, what's once more? But I can see arguments both ways as to whether the value outweighs […]
