The comments by Rob May suggest that somehow the human dynamics will be affected by this visual, searchable, time-stampable social network identity we have. But I believe we have always had multi-faceted identities. And whenever an individual undergoes change - even for the better - it always causes a stress on past relationships. That it may happen in (online) public, will cause more stress. This stress will have an effect, as May suggests. But I think the positive view of the outcome is that "naked" online social representations may push us to better define our roles in real social contexts. And to better understand when to listen to the past, and when to ignore the old voices. Great post BlogSchmog,

If I have 5-6 different online handles and identities, it's as much due to the boredom of filling out yet another set of online forms w/ every new social networking service I sign up for as due to some desire for anonymity. I think it's nifty that Google has their AuthSub service, allowing a person to login to their Google account w/out giving their credentials to a site. I know there are other standards out there for sharing identity or portable info, but they don't seem to have gained much traction.

Much harder to get kids in a car than to walk them across a grassy field to a familiar building. Even if the insane troll logic dictating a change in location were necessary, how does one justify bypassing that many other nearby options for the least convenient location? Someone is getting an angry writer, once I figure out where it needs to go. It did suck. Much harder to get kids in a car than to walk them across a grassy field to a familiar building.

I moved this year and gave up voting in the courthouse at the very center of town. It felt like my vote was more important in that building. My trip today was only 0.6 miles, but I was demoted to voting in the 'Transportation Building' which is really the citu/IU bus depo/garage. That sucks man.
