this is a pain in my sweet little butt. to "blog this" from http://digg.com, pst (utc-8) has to be used. digg doesn't seem to allow adjustments for timezones. livejourno, on the otherhand, let's you set your timezone, but that does nothing to account for posts from other timezones and there is no automatic indication of which timezone posts come from.

so far, the only thing i've been able to do is make all posts from pst by back-dating my manual posts ict-15 (indochina time - 15). but this sux and i won't do this forever.

maybe the only way to fix this is to buy a livejourno upgrade. dream on!
