Friend's filters

[watervole]

I think it's time I updated my friends list. Note that my friends list is not the list of people I read, but the people who can read my friends-locked posts.

If you want to read postings where I'm wittering about work (which seems safer to keep locked) or about family (where I don't want to embarrass them if anyone goes looking) and you're not currently on my friends list, then leave a message here.

You won't be missing anything thrilling if you're not on the list. Note that I'm unlikely to put you on the list unless I know who you are in real life.

Here's a message!

Welcome to my friend's list.

Hi Judith,

if you haven't already guessed Kat_erine is me, Kathy Taylor, whom you know from real life. The last time we met was at the slash discussion at Eastercon.

Please add me to your friends lists.

Kathy

You're now on my friends' list.

You won't be missing anything thrilling if you're not on the list. Oh, I'm sure there are thrills (little tiny ones, maybe) but then I speak as someone who happily buys published letters and diaries by the bucketful...

And it has to be more thrilling than mine...

Er, you were already on it. Didn't you notice the padlock on anything you were reading?

Will I still be able to read about the cowslips coming into bloom and the swallows arriving? It would help if I could remember which is which between swallows and house martins, cos which ever we get has arrived.

Anything about swallows and cowslips always goes on my public postings. I certainly wouldn't friend lock those.

It's only stuff that I don't want strangers to read by accident that gets locked. eg. I have a friend who lost a job and it may have been related to things he posted in his journal.

Most of what I post is public.

Er, you're the second person who was already on my friend's list who has asked to be put on it...

It was a "just in case"... :)
