Window 3

It’s been another fun weekend. Including some rumours which rather pleased me but I won’t be discussing on a public blog (don’t get excited, it isn’t juicy gossip). It has sparked an interesting series of thoughts though.

Turns out Eric Atwell really does live this side of Leeds. He came in tonight while I was working.

Speaking of which I Googled his name to check I had the spelling correct and thought “hmm, what if I had blog to the end of this search query.” It wasn’t long before I was fishing around to see what SoC staff had blogs. While my search was admittedly limited to a narrow selection of the staff, one man of course failed to disappoint.

The blog is called Pythoneer’s Journal, so I’ll leave you to guess which member of staff it is :D.

Which then leads me onto the question, is it a good thing if you know that people read your blog? (Or perhaps another way to phrase it, how bad it is if you know people read your blog?). Because if you know people do, how much do you start censoring it?

I mean, would I be so harsh on coursework specs if I knew the author of it read my blog? Would I be so harsh about my PD31 group if I knew they read it? I like to think so, particuarly because I knew several of my PD31 group did read my blog but it makes you wonder…

    You didn’t know Nick wrote a blog? Get with the times ;)

    I know what you mean about being unsure what others might think if they read my blog, but at the same time, I like to think if I have a criticism of someone or something I always back it up with fact and reason and by considering this when I write my blog I find it allows me to better refine what I am writing, especially if its controversial.

    See my take on SoC staff reading my blog :)
