That’s said I also assume that those who know my weblog exist check it first when they need something that could be reasonably expected to be there. I’m usually patient with struggling students and busy colleagues in that respect, but not with marketing people wanting something from me who use blog contact form without taking time to read at least a bit :)

One of the items you mentioned that struck me during this reading is “bloggers have to figure out how to deal with socially awkward situations talking to strangers who know them pretty well.” I have had this happen with friends who I only speak with on a monthly basis or so, though who follow my Twitter updates when they get posted to my blog. They often know exactly what I have been doing, and makes for some awkward pauses when I hear, “Yes, I know.”

Have you had any of these experiences you can share when this has happened to you?
