I post some information about myself here, and elsewhere online, but there’s an awful lot I don’t say. The problems are:
- I do want to… confess? That’s not it, I’m not committing grievous sins. I want to release some of the pent-up stuff (experiences, thoughts, opinions), and writing is a way to do this.
- This is a public place. Okay, so no-one reads it, but they may – and this could be bad personally (in that it might worry or hurt people), or in terms of employment (if a potential employer read this they may be put off).
Even if I take steps to obfuscate my identity, this site can easy be traced back to me. If I use a different blog site, there will still be footprints, and I even have an unease about posts I’ve made on Reddit.
What to do?
