Comments on: Bloggers, Beware of What You UnPublish http://blog.sellsiusrealestate.com/blogging/bloggers-beware-of-what-you-unpublish/2007/01/05/ Tue, 7 Oct 2008 22:42:21 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3 By: Marty Van Diest http://blog.sellsiusrealestate.com/blogging/bloggers-beware-of-what-you-unpublish/2007/01/05/#comment-47577 Marty Van Diest Fri, 12 Jan 2007 01:39:07 +0000 http://blog.sellsiusrealestate.com/blogging/bloggers-beware-of-what-you-unpublish/2007/01/05/#comment-47577 Hah! After reading this and even commenting on it a couple days ago, I just deleted a post I made this morning. It bugged me all day, it was too negative. It wasn't anything about the market but just about something going on in my local community. Just because I now have the ability to send my words out there doesn't mean I need to voice my every opinion. Thankfully, my brand new baby blog doesn't have any subscribers yet, I don't even know if anyone except my Mom in Washington state who proofreads for me even sees it. But still, it bothered me to have that up. Hah! After reading this and even commenting on it a couple days ago, I just deleted a post I made this morning. It bugged me all day, it was too negative.

I guess I'll just add it to my 'Out-Take List' of all those other things I've thrown out to the Universe (both written and verbal) and couldn't take back---the 'Un-ringing of the Bell Experiment' I've been working on my whole adult life. Who has time to re-write anything, anyway? I'm not sure but I think that's why I started blogging in the first place. Yeah, that sounds pretty typical of something I’d do.

Agreed. I'm not a big fan of "in your face" marketing on blogs. And contrary to some opinions, I don't put listings on my blog (there are plenty of other places to find them). But really, I'm "The Phoenix Real Estate Guy". It's the URL for Pete's sake. If that isn't a form of self-promotion, I'm not sure what would be...

For some reason the arrogant tone of my post was not apparent to me until after I published it. Once I did, the post started to dog me in a big way and after about an hour, I rushed to my dashboard and hit the delete button, but of course, it lives on in my feed. I suppose when a guy is bent out of shape, he should take that old approach of writing today and posting tomorrow. Thanks for pointing out the one of the benefits of having no subscribers. :)
