As you can see, my name is clearly attached to whatever I write. I have no plans to blog under a pseudonym. Frankly, most of what I write is only interesting if you know who I am. I don’t specify exactly where I work, although most people who know me already know that. I also don’t include coworkers’ names. I do this so that someone searching for a coworker won’t find what I have to say about them.

I also have no plans to stop blogging, or Twittering, altogether. Life would be too boring. But I do need to learn how to see a post the way others will. One of my coworkers pointed out today that while he could understand what I meant, he also could understand what would be considered offensive.

So my first course of action is clear: I’m going to revise the articles that led to offense, clearing up their intent. And I hope that’ll be enough.

Part of the reason I stopped updating was that nothing seemed all that interesting, and I didn’t want to push my older, more substantive, posts out with a bunch of drivel.  That’s changed with the advent of Twitter.  Twitter can carry my one-off comments or links, and the blog (what you’re reading right now) will have longer and more substantial content.

One thing to note: I do intend to repost older entries, with some of the better comments. Apologies if your comment isn’t included, but I’m just picking a few of the best.

So, c’mon back. I’ll be here.
