This is going to be fun. I should probably introduce myself; I'm Beermat Scribbler (BS for short). Not really, obviously, but due to the need to be employable I have decided to create a completely anonymous blog which isn't associated with any other online identity I've had or with my actual name. Sad that it is necessary, but these days it is now that it isn't just us dorks online - the fact that employers and others will google you is quite scary, along with the tendency for social networking sites etc to want to link everything together. Some of us like to have chunks of our lives in discrete boxes, ta. Would you share your browser history with your mother? Precisely. Yet folk think nowt of blurting stuff all over Facepalm that they might live to regret. Anyway, this hallowe'en costume is exactly for that reason, so that I can like what I want, link to what I want, and slag off what I want, and so on, without compromising my offline identity. I'm not a public figure. Just a scatterbrained Yorkshire bloke in a tin foil hat.
So what is this blog going to be about? Well, pretty much everything really. Bit of politics, beer, places I've been, musings on society or media bollocks, things I think are awesome. In other words if it doesn't refer to my occupation or personal life I'll probably witter on about it at some point. Feel free to link if you find my ramblings at all interesting... I'll see some of you in your own comment threads soon.
