I have several small websites. I think other people refer to all of them as "blogs". The one I think of as "my blog" is http://www.novemberwest.com/blog.
It's a hodgepodge -- bitching about personal problems, talking about relationship stuff, "women's issues", a few photographs of stuff in San Diego, miscellany. It was created with the explicit intention of having a sandbox to write about stuff that I find interesting, stuff of a sort which inevitably seems to inspire lynch mobs in online forums. So it helps me stay out of trouble on forums and email lists. It makes it easier for folks who can't stand me to avoid reading ...whatever the heck it is about me which historically kept me in social hot water no matter what I did. It is also helping me bleed off the chatter so that other writing I do is more focused and topical.
