Back when I was vlogging every day for a short time in 2005, I posted a video of my reaction to the first London bombings in 2005, which I took down the next day because I was afraid it seemed to personal a reaction, not profound enough to reflect the seriousness of what had happened. Also I didn't want to attract any anger from anyone, or to be featured on the mass of "Citizen Journalists React" pieces that the media went crazy with that week. Some people who had received it by feed wrote to me and told me that I shouldn't have taken it down, that it had been a real reaction and that that was important. And then I regretted it, but didn't feel I could put it back up. I thought I'd lost all my old posts, because my hard drive went down, but I just found them again on the Archive, so I might revlog some of them. Maybe I'll include that one. There was one from the day before, when Britain won the Olympics bid, which was a particular favourite of mine, because it was so 'in the moment'. Amazing how the mood of the whole country changed in 24 hours. I'm glad to have a personal record of that. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
