So now I can tell people what I’m doing, show them pics (via Flickr) or videos (via YouTube or Vimeo) of what I’m doing, and also share where I’m doing things. All this and I’m not even getting into posting my web activity. But why would I want to do this–putting my every little deed for out there for all to see? I mean, aren’t we always valuing our privacy? Well, I guess you can look at it as a reach for attention. Maybe a little bit of exhibition? For me, it’s actually a way to kind of keep a record or journal. I actually pay attention to privacy settings on these sites, so not everything is being put out there in public. But, I also like to share my experiences. I do have a friend or two who like to keep tabs, and thus I try to make it interesting for them once in a while. I wish most of my friends were active in this way as well. I mean, it beats having to actually send letters, or e-mails, or even make a phone call.

I sort of promised myself that with this new chapter in my life beginning in Chicago, I’ll better document it for memories and reflections. I’ll have my camera and phone to take pics of the new places I’ll discover. I’ll tweet any interesting experiences. And if you’ve got a Twitter, Brightkite, or even a Flickr account, add me! I’m addicted to reading and responding to other’s microblogging.
