--{ one problem with web logs }--
One problem with web logs is that the writer risks becoming repetitive to their real-life, but web-browsing, friends. I've been in conversations with friends where something they're saying seems awfully familiar, like they've told me those stories before. And it turns out this is because I read the stories on their web pages. Alternatively, I've told anecdotes to some friends and they've interrupted, saying that I've already told them those anecdotes, and I say no I haven't, and then it turns out that they just read them on my web page.
This problem gets more complicated when you don't know which of your friends actually read your web page, and which don't. And even more complicated when friends that you never expected to read your web page do, but forget that they just read that certain something on your web page and insist that you're repeating yourself, please stop it.
No real solution here, no real point. Just an observation.
