I understand that for obvious reasons (e.g. <a href="http://www.bloodbus.com/" rel="nofollow">Bloodbus</a>, <a href="http://girlwithaonetrackmind.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Girl with a one track mind</a>), <em>some</em> blogs work better if they're anonymous -- even though 'girl' was famously outed but I feel that people are entitled to be able to associate the thoughts, opinions and occassional vitriol with an actual <em>person</em> when they visit my site... @Paul – what they’re driving at is that initially (apparently) it was public, and not limited to known, logged in users.
