This is scary: blog gives you publicity you probably don’t want. After your name pops up at the first page of search results you kind of expected to provide high quality content.
In any case it takes courage to go public. It’s even more difficult then you have high-quality everyday reading from the blogs of others. It’s easy to start doubting and believing that you have nothing “smart” to contribute. And finally, Google returns your own blog when you search for something that interests you.
It’s not funny. It’s nice at the beginning to see your name at the top. It takes a lot of courage later to continue writing. Just because you feel that you are in the “spot-light”.
The story behind: After checking my referrer logs I found out that a couple of people came via Google or Yahoo. Both refer to my log at the first page when searching for informal learning.
