Fascinating.

A readme for popular blogging.

It says a lot of things that I agree with, and some that I don't.

I intend to go back through it some day when I'm not NNWMing and do a point-by-point thought-trail on it.

The most obvious thing I disagree with is the concept that one has any right to privacy after publishing something on the web. I mean, that's just preposterous. So is the idea that one should not have people asking for more information, assuming there is venue for public comment.

Just my $0.02.

That was written for forums other than LJ; I suspect it needs to be re-worked for this specific format. I see a large difference between leaving a comment on LJ and e-mailing a question about an entry that was deliberately left with comments disabled.

I consider it rude to make a connection between a person's professional self and personal self without permission. I'd say that pointing out an online journal to a boss is grounds for a bitchslapping.
