can't believe so many of you guys haven't played TrackMania, it's a fun lightweight game which is usually a good change of pace from FPS when at a lan.

Was linked thanks to NathanaelB and am rightfully appalled also. Will be contacting my bank tomorrow regarding removing my accounts from there. Totally disgusting.

Yet another reason why I have comments on my blog set for all to be moderated before posting.

Re: Blogging Taboos - What won’t you blog about?

For me blogging taboo differs according to where I'm writing; I have 2 blogs. One is a more professional, public blog where I talk about technology and related things but tend to avoid talking at length about personal things. I have another locked blog which I also maintain where I talk about personal things. Yes elements of both do slip into the other but you won't often read about things happening with me personally on my public facing blog, unless it's of technical or public interest. My 100 things list was a notable exception, but even when compiling that I was aware that it would be generally available and thus wrote accordingly.

It has long been my belief that I can be interesting without revealing too much about myself to a public and largely unknown audience. If people want to get to know me better on a more personal level there are plenty of ways in which they can do so, and many do. Thus what I consider taboo for my public blog generally goes into the private where I have personally selected the audience.
