  • Until they’re finished, I’ve written a plugin that handles the crossposting. It doesn’t and won’t support all the features of Live+Press, but it is simple, easy to use, and transparent. https://ebroder.net/livejournal-crossposter/

    I’m not quite sure which symbol you tracked down, but ∋, (code number 8715) is the more correct character to use.

    It is the opposite of the symbol you listed and is read “contains.”

    i.e.

    Some Site ∋ A page

    (read “some site contains a page”)

    There’s also ∍ (8717), which is a smaller version of the same glyph.

    And technically, the element symbol is not quite the same as an epsilon. According to the Unicode standard, a lower case epsilon is ε (949). My math professor actually writes epsilon this way to be sure it isn’t confused with the element symbol. However, some people do write epsilon the same as an element symbol.

    vkaryl – you probably never learned this because you never studied Greek. It’s not a common school class. I only know because my Latin teacher was a Greek major, so when she didn’t feel like teaching Latin one day, she taught us the Greek alphabet.
