Dw is pretty much the same as Lj. I haven't found many differences yet, apart from the fact that since it's still in its infancy, communities are few and fairly generic. I'm using it more as a back up for my lj and for some other things (mainly, I set up a community there to use in lew of a web site because the tattoo thing is gettin a bit more attention and I needed a place to store and show my works that was easy to navigate for my customers and easier for me to update). Other than that, since it's still bound to invitecodes, there's a marked lack of trolling and flaming, which makes for a nice environment for fandom to grow. And yes, the paid account costs more than on Lj, but it's also true that they give you more icon space (75 instead of 35), Anyway, since I'm crap at explaining, this page here (http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/notes/Dreamwidth_changes_from_LJ) is quite informative :)
