Gregg Easterbrook, a reporter, has been fired from ESPN for remarks he made on his blog. I'm not going to comment on the nature of the remarks but it brings up an interesting point: when you blog, everyone can see you.

That includes your family, your co-workers, your boss and all of your friends. When you're typing into some insignificant text box its hard to keep in mind that the whole English-reading wired world can read your blog. That is hundreds of millions of people.

So be smart about what you write in public ... especially about things that can get you fired.
