Say it loud...?

I have a new theory. Here goes. Ahem.

Saying you're a blogger is a little bit like coming out.

Today at work, the conversation turned to social media. One of my colleagues had heard about Second Life on a course. (Someone Clever, what is Second Life?) In her version, you can pretend to be a cartoon fairy and waft round your real life pretending that things are the way you want. We agreed that most of us have enough trouble dealing with our First Lives.

I wanted to say, no, no, blogging is great. I've been blogging for five years. There are some fantastic blogs. I'm a blogger. Some of my best friends are bloggers. More people should blog. It's fun.

But I didn't.

(By the way, Hilary, are you there?)
