Search your LJ

[andrewducker]

Ever wanted to be able to search your LJ?

There's no built-in LJ search functionality, and getting some other external site to index it for you has always been touch and go, to say the least.

However, the latest version of the semagic client will download all of your posts to a local cache and then allow you to search them for any text you like.

It's fantastic, to put it mildly.

Downloading all my posts would take forever on a dial up. And, would that mean that someone else had a copy of my LJ?

I wonder if it works for friends-only and private posts?

Someone else?

It'd be on your PC, certainly. If other people have access to that, then yes.

But then unless you log yourself out consistently from LJ, then other people have access anyway.
