Top Blogging Site Sold To The Russions

Top Blogging Site Sold To The Russions
December 3rd, 2007

Six ApartSix Apart, creators of Movable Type, today announced that SUP, a Russian media conglomerate, has acquired LiveJournal (LJ), a top blogging/social networking site. SUP has launched an American company, LiveJournal, Inc., to manage and operate LiveJournal globally.

This agreement builds on the established and successful relationship between Six Apart and SUP, which entered into a licensing agreement in October 2006 permitting SUP to manage LiveJournal in Russia. The Russian LiveJournal community is second only to the U.S. in number of accounts, and has been influential enough in that country to make “LiveJournal” synonymous with “blogging” in Russian.
