The naked truth

Dooce, aka Heather Armstrong
Dooce was on the panel How to get naked, along with Ronni, and Koan. This session was all about identity blogging, which made me think about Brand Me all over again. Am I doing the right thing switching from geek girl to girl journalist? Somedays, I wonder. But deep down, I believe it’s the right thing to do. I can still be a geek, but I want to play up the journalist in me.

The web’s very own, Dooce, live and in the flesh. For those of you who don’t know who Dooce is, well, click on the link and read up on her. Funny stuff.

In this session, we talked about identity blogging and opening up to the world online. Some good lessons to take away from this session…
Mindy, of theMommyBlog.com, said she pictures her entire family standing behind her when she’s blogging. This keeps her from posting something she might regret later.

Coming soon…my first podcasts.

Jay Rosen was here too, he said he came for the hot geeky chics. *cool* He also said, “Blogging as a practice, is a form of freedom. A weblog is a First Amendement machine.”
