Dinh vs. Dinhternet

I’ve been told by a lot of peo­ple that I seem dif­fer­ent online ver­sus in per­son. It’s not really a con­scious change in per­sona, but I can see what they are talk­ing about. I think that part of the rea­son IM is my favorite mode of com­mu­ni­ca­tion is that I feel most com­fort­able express­ing myself through text. I don’t know why, but I always feel like an incred­i­bly awk­ward conversationalist.

Any­way, I’ve also been told by peo­ple that I can be quite spammy on the social media front (par­tic­u­larly on Google Buzz, which isn’t smart enough to com­bine reposts across dif­fer­ent ser­vices like Friend­Feed can).

All I can say is, be thank­ful I’m only spammy online. You wouldn’t me all up on you like this in real life, right?
