Now that its has been almost 2 years of blogging and consistently evolving my online social footprint. I am now appreciating how the internet helped me along in delivering my message to different persons around the globe.
I can remember how much courage to took to get myself into the routine of expressing myself online.
It takes lot of courage to rant…lol to do things like interview yourself etc. Lol,
It does, it really does take courage to present your ideas and experiences to persons in the world.
Before I got started I wondered,
… I hope people can understand and respect my ideas and see where I am coming from. This was a decent-sized fear for me, as have not so conventional perspectives and I know very well that I can come across pretty abstract at times…
Once I actually made the commitment to share my ideas on a regular basis with you. I am realizing that your understand and you are appreciating me more. I am also able to understand and appreciate your perspectives more.
I have gotten a chance to listen to converse with you and engage you in conversation on a range of topic. Not always in a public forum .. But I hear your thoughts and ideas. As a result I appreciate you a lot more!
When persons understand each other its not peculiar to one medium…. Having a meeting or talking on the phone. And so your online credibility transfers in the offiline.
One thing I find key about online and blogs is that I am not defined to a particular time or space. There is no box. Well if you decide to not have a box. Blogs and social networks gives you the power to interact and share your ideas with several people. Unlike offiline where you are confined to a particular time and space,
