Hm. As my f-list has grown, I've become more and more careful about Who Gets To Hear What Information. When I first got an LJ, I had maybe twenty people on my f-list, most of whom were fandom-related friends and maybe only one or two of whom actually had met me in RL. Now that my f-list is around 200 or so, I do try to ensure that I don't write an open post of anything I wouldn't feel comfortable talking about out loud in a fairly public setting. LJ doesn't get the boring daily details of 'this is what I had for breakfast, this is what I'm doing this weekend, this is who is bugging me at work'. That's nothing to feel left out about -- only my parents and maybe my roommate get that sort of thing.

I'm fairly careful about keeping my name and identifying details out of general Internet space. Googling my real name doesn't really get you much of anything, apart from geneaology lists. I mostly hope that anyone who meets me in RL after knowing me on LJ wouldn't be completely shocked in a OMG-you're-nothing-like-I-thought-you-were sort of way.
