The meeting of media...
I'm often reminded that I don't update the blog as often any more, but there seems little point posting here when there's nothing much to say and the last three months have mainly consisted of get up, look for a job, potter about in the garden, go to bed. Of course, I'm delighted that's all about to change again from Monday!
I do regularly post on Facebook and Twitter, but then it begins to get complicated. I've always tried to retain my anonymity on here (even though most of the readers know me in the real world) but I particularly like to have a forum where I can rant about work with little fear of it getting back to anyone concerned.
So we have the blog at one extreme which is reasonably anonymous, and Facebook at the other where every comment is blurted out to all of my friends at once and Very few of the Facebook friends know about the blog and posting a link to Facebook from here would compromise my anonymity.
Somewhere in the middle sits Twitter which is probably still my favourite and with a 140 character limit is ideal for the lazy blogger, but for some reason very few of my friends use it regularly. Some of my Twitter followers know about the blog and some don't, but there's no reason why anyone here shouldn't see my tweets so I've added a tweet feed on the left - feel free to browse, or follow if you wish.
Honestly, all this fuss about anonymity, anyone would think I've got something to hide...

I like the venn diagram although my first thought was that of a stage with Stephen Fry at the centre of it.
I'll stick with anonymity because of my job and because I'm a lazy twitterer.
I'm so dull and ordinary that anonymity is needed for nowt...! I just visit a few websites now and then. But here is the place I communicate mostly.
Dull and ordinary? You've raised a family of rock stars!
