Kind of why we should realise that to live and online we very probably need multiple identities. Kind of the same reason that I like to quarantine my school email, from DEECD employer edumail, from private family email, from this professional persona for edulists etc. A colleague takes this further, creating different accounts on his laptop to separate work from home.<br>
<br>I have a professional identity (work) with LinkedIN and a private identity (family) with facebook. With the former I add contacts who I would happily share my CV with and the latter who I would happily invite to my home. I could add more personas including the stern faced teacher at school and the bubbly chap on Edulists. Other than that, a splash of doppelganger confusion helps .. a google search of my name will pick my twin cousin (same name) who enjoys riding unicycles with his Dutch bike club. <br>
<br>Now, which Roland you meet at VITTA conferences and is he the same as me?<br><br>Regards Roland<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Sep 19, 2010 at 9:54 AM, Mark KELLY <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kel@mckinnonsc.vic.edu.au">kel@mckinnonsc.vic.edu.au</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>For no reason, my friend became a square, flat surface with four legs. I rushed him to hospital. His condition is table.<br>
