nasty comments are the worst. and my favorite blogs are the ones that aren't at all anonymous, and then the ones that are somewhere in the middle. i have a really hard time relating to someone that i can't see or that doesn't share one ounce of personal information. but that's just my opinion. i don't leave mean comments. i just don't read.

It is kind of scary how easy it is to find out about things these days on the internet. I am probably one of those "on the fence-ers"...I try to keep my blog content pretty low key, but sometimes it's hard to mask locations, names, etc.

I've been terrified of "nasty" comments. Quite honestly, I'm not sure why anyone would bother reading & commenting if they have something nasty to say, right?

People are hurtful. I've struggled with keeping a semi-anonymous profile for some time now.

I also am always conscience of what I'm writing. I keep it pretty neutral with names and locations (you could find me so quickly if you knew my whole name too!) and the topics are middle of the road too. I just think, if [insert person/situation here] read this, would I be embarrassed? If so, I don't write about it.

I grapple with this issue a lot, but find myself leaning towards the "less is more" side when it comes to sharing. I want to share more photos and personal details, but don't know where to start. I've been making tiny steps but then I get worried that it's too much to put out there. It's definitely a balancing act.

I have been thinking about this All. The. Time. lately.

First off, I don't understand negativity. If I see something I don't like, I usually just click out of it and pretend I never saw it. Is that SO hard?

Even though I share a LOT on my blog... I like to think I"m fairly anonymous. Googling my name and e-mail address doesn't point to my blog... but I don't know who is reading it.

And then people tell me I need to shut down my blog in order to find a job. Weep.

i think about this sometimes to. Now that we all know employers look on Monster and FB etc to find what you're like outside of work, i'm cautious! about the negative feedback? I never undertand why people stick around to write mean things....get a move on, you're not forced to read!!
