Blogging Safety

I just wanted to write a quick post about being a safer and smarter blogger. After I started blogging, my husband brought to my attention that I was probably giving out a bit too much information about our family. Since then I have tried to be careful about using our last name, city info, school names and other info on our blog. It has made me feel safer about friends, family and even strangers reading about us. I know that we all have a different comfort level about blogging safety but I found a good article that made me take a smarter look at how and what I post on our blog. http://www.bloggingmommies.com/safety.php I am really enjoying blogging and I love to read about everyone, I just want to make sure everyone is informed and protected. Also, if you have a link to our blog which includes our last name, could you please change it to only include our first names. It might seem silly, but it makes me feel that much safer. Happy Blogging.

So Matt... If I understand you correctly about your paranoia regarding too much information... I should not tell everyone that your birthday is March 23, 1974 or that your SSN is 623-78-8062? I don't know, I'm just askin...
