Off The Record, Non-Bloggable Posts You Must Not Read About
On TV, a famous personality would tell a reporter some secrets and say "This is off the record."
In the blogosphere, we are told "This is Non-Bloggable."
Now I understand how those journalists feel. It's like knowing an open secret you can't tell everyone else who is not 'in' the circle of confidence.
For instance, I can't blog about...
... Yep. I can't blog about those.
So I'll just tell you that Aileen cooks great spaghetti, Abe is a blog-writing addict, Sasha and Gail can actually play basketball, Marc and Marc have the same first names, Sharms loves ice hockey, Rico is buying a Nintendo DS Lite, Jayvee has a Nintendo DS Lite and networking can actually take you places.
Why is this important to know? Because when you talk to people, face to face, you see the other aspects of their personality that you don't see on blogs. You realize that they have feelings and you can unintentionally hurt someone with something you post online.
Knowing that, I'm now more careful with what I post. You should too. Make a point, state your point and don't make it too personal.

Haayy… oo nga sana people would be mindful of what they post, I think that’s one of the shortcomings of technology, we tend to forget that that website is by a person. Who has feelings. Gets hurt and gets offended as easily by words typed.

maybe there should be a Pinoy Blogger Code of Ethics or something like that so that bloggers can be guided when it comes to “responsible posting/commenting”. hehe.
blogger basketball is on the works now. for the meantime, sama ka sa blogger badminton this Tues at West Badminton (Kapitolyo near Markku’s place) 9pm-12md. okies! bring your own raquet… and shuttleCOCKS if you have.
