This one.

Anything worthy of posting, I'll be posting there from now on. Posts here will appear but rarely. I realize this will be inconvenient for some (all?) of my LJ-hound friends, but as I've mentioned before, I am not particularly enamored of the social dynamic potentially (!) created by LiveJournal. I don't like that friends-lists cannot be hidden, and that it's potentially hurtful to someone if I don't list them as "friend". I don't like worrying over whether to lock my posts, and wanting to create a different custom group for every locked post I do make. If there's private info I want to share, I'll share it individually. I like hosting my blog on my own (host's) server space. Et cetera.

I know there's a way to cross-post private bloggage to LJ, but don't really have time to figure it out. I think there's a way to make it an RSS feed, but again won't bother with that. If you'd like to read what I post on there, please bookmark it. If not, I promise to not be offended.

(Note: this is not an "I hate LiveJournal" post. I actually quite like it. I just want to have my own thing. And possibly cut down on feeling obligated to read my "friends" page.)

Comment on your new blog.

Hey, I like it and don't have a problem with your leaving LiveJournal. It's not for everyone. And I'm not sure I was ever hurt you never added me to your friends list, if you were wondering. :)
But regarding the new blog, it doesn't seem like wide displays very much. I know nothing about Movable Type, but is that common? Or is there a way to make the text wrap to the window? If you're going for something specific, that's fine, but I thought I'd mention it in case you hand't noticed it.
