I meant it in a more metaphorical way. You see, so far, the only person who knows about this blog, is none other than yours truly :D Having a blog has just been a way to amuse myself, write down random thoughts, and also discover more about myself.
But a blog with only one viewer seems a tad trite and more than a little pointless.
So my question now is, when should I, if at all, tell my friends about my blog, or should I continue keeping it under wraps?
Under usual circumstances, I would go to one of my friends who I consider to be a Sage of Wisdom (you know who you are) and beg for guidance... However, in this case, its is kind of impossible to do so without giving away the whole plot :S
I have attempted to weigh out the pros and cons of making this blog explicit;
Positives about telling friends;
- Allows some form of feedback from friends, i.e. people who's opinions I place quite highly,
- I no longer feel that I am hiding something from them,
- Feedback is possibly more intuitive than that given by the voices in my head,
- I no longer have to keep my fingers hovering over the Alt-Tab buttons when someone enters the room mid-blog.
- I would have to conceal secrets in my blog,
- Some people would find out things about me that I don't feel ready to tell them yet (the existence of Troy, for example),
- There's still a large possibility of me getting bored and discarding this blog forever and ever and ever, and a dead blog would be a great pity.
Maybe I'll consider telling one friend about it, and seeing his/her opinion on what to do next... Possibly the Sage...?
Ah wells. I guess the blog of the handsomest man you'll ever meet couldn't be kept a secret forever....
