ummmm... ever heard of the concept of not airing one's dirty laundry in 
public? most of one's "deepest, most secret thoughts.." really ought not 
to be publicised.. that's why when people *DO* it really looks like 
self-gratification. and looking for an audience.

yeah... current projects, fine. news, fine. everybody wants to be a 
mini-slashdot these days it seems. i have no issue with original content 
(hey, my own website contains my latest little coding project, which is 
really just a toy). but the "dear diary" type of web log is what gets my 
goat. the internet is not one's diary.
