You know, on net, the internet would be a better place if more people did this, but I wonder why the author even bothered posting anything at all?
I have definitely done this. Written half an essay in the awful.systems comment box, realized I don't know what the fuck I'm saying anymore, and deleted it. I like to tell myself that forcing myself to realize I was being incoherent is enough to justify the costs. I guess if I acknowledge that I don't rely on my online footprint to put food on the table the way the proper blogonauts (we're still doing blogs, right?) do I can understand the incentives against doing that though.
