CMSWire had a chance to speak with the Russian media company who just acquired LiveJournal from San Francisco-based Six Apart.

Edward Shenderovich is the Director of Strategy for Moscow-based SUP (pronounced "soup" in English). Edward comes from a recent history with Web CMS vendor Quantum Art, and from social networking project Dandelife.

Today he walks through the recent history of the SUP / Six Apart partnership, the future of LiveJournal, and discusses some of the controversy which has been bubbling in the blogosphere ever since SUP first partnered with Six Apart.

Six Apart has sold LiveJournal to Russian media group SUP for an undisclosed sum. SUP has established a U.S.-based company, LiveJournal Inc., which will manage the worldwide operations of the popular blogging and social networking brand.
