- the future.
On an unrelated-to-the-above note, this article came across my Bloglines this evening – it address what should and should not be blogged about, which is something I’m trying to deal with retrospectively. There are a lot of things I talked about 3-4 years ago that simply don’t need to be public. That’s all I’m going to say about that. The most important part of the post, I think, was this advice:
In choosing how much to divulge, consider:
- Will this hurt your family and friends?
- Will this put your job in jeopardy?
- Most importantly: Is such a disclosure really interesting anyway?
I think the last is the most interesting and salient point, and one I’m going to have to think through as well.
