okay

[phamos]

so i've downloaded a livejournal client. i don't really know what the benefits of using a client are, given that i'm on a cable modem so i'm always connected, but whatever. maybe this will be easier. we shall see. i'm using journalert. its interface is nice and shiny and aesthetically pleasing so far.

those of you who use clients, can you tell me what benefits you derive from it rather than just posting from the livejournal website? is it just easier for when livejournal's down? because that hasn't happened to me very often at all. any insight would be appreciated.
