I’ve been thinking about my web footprint and I realized that I’ve left a trail of myself all the way since back in 1997. Of course back then I bet my old Geocities website has long since died out but I did manage to find my old blogger adresses (which are tied to your gmail). I was reading through the posts and its pretty weird. It is like reading another person’s writing eventhough you KNOW its you.
I realize back then, I was more carefree when it came to writing and it astounds me now when I look back at the amount of crap I’ve written. Now I find myself a lot more conservative and careful when it comes to writing in an online journal. This might not be a good thing as all the ‘self-censorship’ actually does impede some of the content stirring in my mind. Now I’m worried about clients, friends, family-members, employers and the lot reading about what I write and judging me. I can’t even rant and bitch like I used to. I guess once the veil of anonymity is taken away, you really can’t just mouth off.
Anyhow, I also checked back at an old domain name I used to have and lo’ some bastard has squatted on it. www.ivanyee.com is no longer mine and is now host to this atrocity.
Too bad I can’t read it but it looks like a sales website?… oh well.
