Life and other good things

Invited marxdarx onto Orkut. Am madly scheming abiut what I'll do once I do get a Gmail account.

I am going to make the effort to keep my personal and my professional lives separate, or somewhat so. I suppose my current primary Yahoo account is neither milk nor meat, so I can always give that to people I am meeting for the first time in neither work nor truly personal context.

Is it appropriate to include a link to one's personal web identity on the webspace where one has a professional profile?

I have 4 seperate persona's of sorts.

ECLastname, is the email I give people I meet in a strictly formal or business environment.

elizceleste is the email I give people who I meet personally, or in a personal/mixed context. Ie, I meet you at a party.

dcliz is the email I use for strict commerce. Ebay and half.com

And people I meet over lj, or want to let know I've got fannish interests? Nbombay.

I've been meaning to switch everything but business over to notthegirl.net. I mean, I got a domain for a reason, so that I wasn't dependent on the isp provided email. But I wonder if I want it to be anything but fannish, or I should get a second domain to use for personal, not fan.

My #1 goal is the eclastname not show up in any dubious or porny places.

Be careful...

Thinking about it, I'd probably set up my azurelunatic webpage, my Miss Joan L. Pipsqueak webpage, and then my geocities webpage that I get with my yahoo ID (silenceshadow). I'd direct people who know me as Miss Joan L. Pipsqueak looking for me personally to a "personal" page on the geocities silenceshadow page, and people looking for me professionally who know me as the Lunatic to a "professional" page on the geocities silenceshadow page -- without links back to either of the pages. Heh.

I'm on Orkut, too. Same username.

Once I can grab the orc's nuts again, I'm so adding you.

I'm glad I was not drinking.

We knew I had this inappropriate sense of humor a while ago. And juuro translated "orkut" for me a while ago also.

Mhm?
