scoble twitters and flickrs the birth of his baby son1 min read

a few days ago robert scoble has twittered the birth of his child (and of course he later uploaded the photos to flickr). i found this message via metablog, and i have to say, i agree that this somehow crosses a line.

now, i sometimes, occasionaly, rarely abuse of this blog to spew out personal and quite intimate messages; last happened on the 31. 8.. i find these moments of vulnerability to be cathartic, they can really help to get over things. sometimes. rarely. sometimes i get stuck in a rut, and then to lay it all out there, for everyone to see and read, it can help to disolve the rut and things get better. but there is a certain line i will not cross.

i fully understand that the line or lines that i do cross sometimes, are already too much for certain people. of course this is a matter of individual taste. my reaction to scoble’s twitter makes me want to apologize to anyone i ever offended when writing messages, that are too personal for them. sowwwyyyy.

erm, what am i saying? the question of privacy and what we do share and won’t share on our blogs needs to be looked at constantly.

  1. sharing things helps most of the time. and it’s good that one can shut off things you don’t want to see, go out and look at the grass growing or so…

    ps: did you want to link to your admin-login for the 31.8.?
