I have talked about privacy before, but many of us like to put a lot of ourselves online, through blogs, Flickr, Twitter, etc.
What do you leave off? I leave out lots of family details, even if they are public record.
Also, there are many messages, particularly on Twitter, that I do not send, even when I am bursting to vent. Much of my online life is professional, and there are professional, competitive and ethical considerations.
So-how many messages/posts/etc. do you NOT send in a given day and why?

I’d tell you what I leave off the internet but I’d be putting it on the internet. ;)
I do think keeping frustrations offline is a good idea, you never want to post something in twitter you’d regret. Here is a guideline I use:
Would I be embarrassed/ humiliated/ fired/ arrested/ ostracized if the following people read what I posted: My mom, wife, best friend, CEO or client sponsor?
If yes in any of those I’d keep it offline, although I am not one to pass up some self depricating humor when I have the chance.
Folks– lots of great responses (aside from Adam’s) at the Utterz post. If you click on the “Replies” link within the post, you will find them.
