So uhh like it's been awhile since I've taken the time to get some thoughts out. I've been screwing around with twitter and under the guise of my handle I've entered another social network. I've been torn between my privacy, my work and my curiosity.

Over the last year I've watch how these network are merging together. Now some may have called it a paranoia early on but it was when I was confronted with a situation where I could not fully participate in the online "experience" without giving information from one dot com to another.

First Microsoft's browsers ask to remember my userid and passwords. I'm locked down pretty good as far as logging off my account here at home and I have a userid and password. Which works when I log off. So beyond that I begin to see sites asking for you email address as your log on id. This I suppose can be handy for the average user but in reality it open the door for users (you) to input the wrong password for the same userid because you now have a userid for 3 or 4 other sites. Finally we now have sites that will accept your userid's and passwords from other sites to help sell the machine.

In some regards I see the Internet we inject our thoughts into as the new religion. Well actually it already exists, but none the less it definitely growing faster than another other "book of knowledge" the world has ever seen. For a Religious person this can be scary but even as a citezen of the world we need to pay heed to who is trying to control the informational we feed into it.

So as I try to maintain my userids and passwords, my handles and my email addresses I find my different worlds coming together and if I want to continue to experience what is this new world new mess around I realize if I want to fully participate in the experience I must submit to it as much as it concerns me.

So for those of you who know me from the TRW and this world I say welcome. I hope you don't find the topics I follow here too boring but I can no longer hid this side of me. I am who I am. Now. With that said I'd like to continue on another note.

Here's the new news of the weird.
