I'm looking to update the Guide to DW for LJ Users since we have so many people coming over this week, and realized that I haven't been following LJ development over the past few years closely enough to update the things LJ has that we don't! So, if someone who's been holding dual siteizenship for the past two years can help me make a list of things LJ has implemented since we branched off from them that we haven't integrated yet, that would be awesome.

Off the top of my head:

* Statistics/My Guests
* Repost-this-post button
* Private notes about other accounts

What am I missing?

By repost this post button, you mean the thing where there is a button in a post that allows me to swipe the contents and just repost as is?

Or the thing that allows me to repost my own post to facebook a/o twitter? (it's with the dropdown to lock/filter/not lock the post)

(and also, using fb/t as identities to comment with...)

(I am not recommending implementing same here, just saying it's there)

You can make notes re: users. Useful when blocking.

Mood themes are technically in the same place:

DW it's here: http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=display
LJ it's here: http://www.livejournal.com/customize/options.bml


However, DW has no FAQ entry for mood theme.
