It used to be solely for me, but that&#8217;s just too haphazard right now&#8230; i feel like things need comments, not simply links.  Of course, is that me thinking about how you might perceive me?  Am i self-inducing my own neurotic state because of my wacked readings of the unknown audience?<\/p>\n<p>Or am i writing because i should share the backlog because it may be of interest to you?  But most of you already know half of what my backlog is&#8230;  You all know about Orkut.  And while i have interesting things to say on the matter, i&#8217;m still waiting for it to pop back up since i went offline only hours after it came up.  You all know about Clay Shirky&#8217;s brilliant writings.  You all know about Many-To-Many (and if you don&#8217;t, you don&#8217;t care about that segment of my posts anyhow).<\/p>\n<p>So then am i feeling self-induced pressure to post links that you already know about simply to prove my own status within the blogging community, to show appreciation of others&#8217; brilliant writings? Am i trying to be validated by validating?  Even worse, by being untimely, am i only showing my lack of fashionability, my inability to keep up with the times (otherwise known as my decision to go offline for 4 days)?<\/p>\n<p>God, it&#8217;s a neurotic day in the life of danah.
