bloggish hearsay.

i used to think that this blog was somewhat anonymous, but i'm now mistaken. i've arrived at the conference venue last night. today, two separate colleagues have mentioned this blog to me.

[winces]

two weeks ago, i googled myself. this blog also appears.

[sighs]

they say that people who fake their deaths are rarely undiscovered. it is too difficult not to be oneself, not to reveal something key as to dispel one's anonymity.

so i suppose it had to happen.


so yes, i've already ran into many colleagues at this conference, from years before. that's the key about conferences. you needn't know everyone -- only enough of them.

tomorrow is my talk. we'll see how many of my colleagues are forgiving .. \-:
