I really like the idea of visualizing yourself speaking with someone when we blog. If I get a feel for the bloggers personality, the posts seem more unique!!

Thanks for the insights. Would you agree that tone is the body language of Online communication? Great tone at this blog:-) and that seems to help differences to emerge in a setting of respect:-) You make a good point about bridges we build from people and networks Chris.

In most cases simpler is better.</em> I particularly like this piece of advice - I'm going to have to try and apply it a bit more. Simpler is better. I tend not to use smiley's on my blog posts, but they are pretty crucial at times in the comment section. It is notoriously hard to convey a sense of feeling when you are commenting on somebody's site. Misunderstandings abound! Great stuff, Chris.

I know some people just don't like smileys at all, and in fact would prefer they were gone from the web :) Yeah I think so, not all topics have to be serious.
