Question: Working on the assumption that I want people to see entries I put into the weblog or the livejournal, are more people likely to see them here than there?

I see other people racking up 10s and 20s of comments here, whereas I blink a bit when I see a comment on the weblog.

Or should I just duplicate posts in both places?

I find here easier, but that's just me. :)

For me, it's a hands-down win for LJ. This is because I can concatenate all of my friends onto one page, which is a hell of a lot less work than having to browse to individual urls for each person I know. But I'm just lazy. :-)

i think more folks are likely to see entries here, because of the viral nature of LJ -- you read someone's page, see a comment, go to that person's page, read their posts, add them as a friend, read your friends page, see a comment, read that person's page, etc.

that's not to say kill the weblog, though!! just post in both. =)

It's definitely easier to read your stuff here - I only remember your check your weblog once or twice a week, whereas I'm on LJ pretty much every day (being the sad addict that I am...).

As for comments, a couple of times I've gone to comment in your weblog, only to reach that "nah, what a daft thing to say" point just when I begin typing. LJ feels more comfortable somehow... don't know why, maybe I just tend to be logged in more often when I'm drunk/overtired, rather than clear-headed like I'm normally when I read your weblog.

So I guess your real issue is if you want your journal cluttered with inane comments from drunkards like me :)

If it's either/or, I'd also vote for LJ. It's centralized, has the community, and is simply more convenient for those of us who are on it.
As others have said, I usually check out your 'blog once a week, because I'm lazy. If you posted in LJ, I'd see what you said every day!

Duplicate in both I'd say. Everything else I was going to say, everyone else has already said :) Or you could do what Kathy does, and have one for "Life" entries and the other for "silly stuff" reviews, quizzes, lists etc.
