After watching Doug's documentary I thought about the movie "Dangerous Liaisons". They both portrait a series of journals and correspondence dealing with intimate facts and thougths that are made public. Only for the Baroque France aristocracy that meant personal ruin, and for the generation Y it's a completely banal thing. From then to now the line between private and public changed a lot. So I ask my classmates: if you were to post a personal web site (I'm sure some of you already done that) what would you never want to end up online? what would you reveal and what would you hide? What kind of consequences could result today from revealing personal things online? Would that depend on the person's lifestyle? Did it matter for the people portrayed in Home Page?

I created this blog some time ago, but never posted anything other than "hello world"... Now I'm required to write assignments for my Interactive Documentary class in the form of a weblog, so here I am again!
