secret sites comments at kottke.org
a mostly uninteresting bunch of comments about having secret blogs. it struck me though because my habit online is near-anonymity, and lately two friends have started friendster blogs, which are the complete opposite. not only are friendster blogs connected to a full profile, and made obvious to all of your "friends," but random area people browsing can find them. so someone who recognizes your face from a bar is suddenly reading about your lj-esque ups and downs. neat for travelogues and life updates for out of touch friends, but otherwise too highly visible for my taste.
also, at myvag.net: how being super-open has been interesting. (ugh, braindead vocabulary; blame that on a busy weekend.)
