I intend to grant access to a number of people I won't subscribe to; not wanting to read hundreds of journals, but not minding a wide set of eyeballs, is one of my big reasons for liking the read/access split.

I lock all job-related posts and a lot of fanfic. (For some values of "a lot." Over 70% of my fanfic, which is not much.) I have no problem with pretty much anyone I know online reading those; I just don't want to throw them out for the general googlable public. (I know I can restrict google searches. I do. It's not enough.)

It'll probably take me a couple of months to start seriously dealing with the access/read features; I want to re-set my filters, and maybe wait until DW figures out reading filters, before I deal with all that. Right now, I'm subscribing & accessorizing my close friends from LJ/IJ, and subscribing to a number of journals that I discovered on LJ after I made the switch to IJ.
