Anonymous asked: Hey Dave, I want to ask a question inspired by an episode on House MD. You blog every single day, has blogging ever affected your life in any negative way? For example, you have aquired a stalker who follows you around everywhere you go, and since you blog about your location with pictures, the stalker uses those as clues to zero in on you.
The only negative I’ve found from blogging is the hate-mail and hate-comments that come with putting your opinions on the internet.
As for “stalking”… not really. My blog entries are posted at the end of the day, so all the places I’ve been have already happened. It would be more likely that somebody could track me down from my Twitter and Gowalla pages, which are updated more often… but I usually only mention places I’ve been after I’ve been there, so those aren’t much of a help either. This isn’t to say somebody couldn’t eventually find me somehow but, on those rare occasions, it’s just been to say “hello,” which is not a big deal.
