My “private” blog

Posted in Voices inside my head at 6:33 pm by dmingz

Imagine this!! this lifeless blog that i started 3 yr ago out of curiosity, with only 9 postings before today, was read by someone whom is not on my facebook/friendster list and left a short comment “people should read this”

 

Pardon me, but allow me to bask in this delight. it felt like winning a nobel prize. a stranger is reading abt my sad life and finds inspiration from my postings! (btw, i always refer my life as sad because everyone thinks they lead the saddest life)

 

this truely illustrate the privacy of blogs. my friends are discussing the other day abt pple writing their blogs like a personal diary. On it, they detailed their lifes, commented or complaint abt their bosses, colleagues, friends etc etc. All the while, thinking that these people will not be reading their blogs.

 

My darlings, check the url of your blog and see if it does not begin with http://. if it does, chances are, this is not your thick, pink “hello Kitty” book that you hide under lock and key from your mother, father, sisters, boyfriend(s), best friends that has all your dirty little secrets and tells how much you actually hate these people.

We do not call internet the WORLD WIDE web for no good reason. people who lives in USA, who do not know you may just google you and all your previous postings on your blog, travel sites, your friend’s blog will all show up. (trust me on this, i googled and all my postings on above mentioned sites can be found) if pple who are total strangers to you may read your blog, REST ASSURED that your bosses, colleagues, friends etc are reading it as well. so if you want to rant about them, find that pink Hello kitty book that’s prob now covered in dust. (if you had thrown it away. i bet the garung guni man is reading it right now.)

 

To my boss and colleagues (if you ever came here): There’s nth here on you. Shoo, go somewhere else.

 

To my friends: if you read the previous posts, you will find some references of yourself somewhere. Thanks for inspiring me to think and write these thought provoking pieces (read incident above). You help me grow and mature (read:make me older by irritating me). i appreciate you being in my life (previous, present or future parts of my life) and remember, friendship is not formed by reading blogs (read posting below)

 

To Wynona (if you ever bother to come back to this dessert again): Thanks for the comment. it made me really happy for a number of days. I hope it help you to see things in a different perspective. BTW, do i actually know you?

To the rest of the WWW who is going to read my posts: All postings here are made on a personal basis and do not reflect the views of any organisation or authority. If you want to sue me, rest assured i have given all my assets to my cat named “Doggie”.
