How much honesty do you want to have on someone’s blog that you read?
Tell the truth.
I read some stuff that I know is fluff. I read some stuff and say to myself “Oh My God, why would anyone put that information out there?” Aren’t there just some things that you leave with your therapist?
I mean, I have stories that would make your toes curl.
So what do you really want?
I don’t mind TMI- but if it is really, really TMI- I like at least a warning and maybe a jump page to give me the choice if I want to know.
I also believe it depends on the author. If it is a personal blog I’ve chosen to follow and revisit- then I don’t mind. If it is a business blog- that’s out of line and unprofessional.
Some people have a knack for presenting uncomfortable, almost too-personal information in a vulnerable way that makes it ok. Some…do not. 🙂
Blogging is probably like a therapist for alot of people. I get what you are saying but perhaps thats their form of therapy.
Everything on my blog, twitter, and facebook account is true and accurate.
So help me God.
I know it is Brother Kahuna, I know it is.
I am open to whatever people want to put on their blog, so long as they are the same in person.
At the last Social Media Indy, @mooshinindy spoke her mind aloud in the same way she does in her blog. Who doesn’t love that?
At the same time, people like @rntgirl crack me up, but I bet she keep things low key at the office.
I cannot stand people who are bare their soul online but don’t want any attention when you see them. If you blogged it, I am going to ask you about it. Often.
