I'm A-Political.
Meaning against politics.
Wouldn't that be anti-political? Apolitical means you just don't give a fart in a whirlwind about politics.

I know, I know, we've taken this derail too far already. But I couldn't pass up needling you just a bit more.

I have own blog and if people want to read it they can or subscribe to it
Im not fussed, I dont put heaps of personal info on it though

works fine
otherwise on email just cc the people who need to know stuff. You can email more than one person at a time.

work we have a shared drive so theres pics on that cos we on the same network. Some workplaces have intranet so only workmates can see.

facebook is not actually private even when you change your own settings to private. If one person wants to share what you posted to someone else on fb, who you are not friends with, they can, so all your attempts at privacy will come to naught.

Remmber photo albums?

I still have them
what happens is when ppl come over sometimes dig them out to show people

otherwise, some ppl still do the dreaded 'holiday letter' in which they write a letter saying everything theyve been up to in the past year, photocopy it, and send it out to everyone.

I never know what to reply to these types of letters.

Although its kinda semi interesting that someones had ten operarions and went on six holidays, bought a new house or whatever. I find most people dont have time for this type of correspondence anymore.

otherwise its the phone call, or facetime for an hour or so to catch up.

I like reading letters but I feel writing long letters is a wasted effort since most people do not keep the letters, except maybe only special letters. Email is a better form at least you don't throw them away unless you "delete", but there could be privacy concerns.

I read a book called MM personal

it was about Marilyn Monroe and the contents of her file cabinet

basically a lot of paper recording all her business transactions, receipts, correspondance, photos she sanpped on her camera, doodles etc.

It got made into a book for curious fans after her death, but shed already written her autobiography/memoir which I think was published before she died called My Story

I am not at a stage where I want to tell or share my life story though, but in book format its easier for people to read it. Then maybe later it can be turned into a movie.

artists and photographers often keep portfolios of their work its not always online.

The thing bout books is usually people keep them and dont throw them away

just make a book
like a scrapbook or year book

that is why facebook was popular, becuase it was basically an electronic year book people could write comments in. Originally it didnt even have photos, except for your profile pic. I remember when it was just a place to write stuff you liked and people played farmville on it.

How do you share your life with those not living with/near you?
um..... email?

plus, I don't guess I'm arrogant enough to think that "the world" is interested in my day to day experiences... I'm certainly not interested in about 99.998% of everyone else's....
