There is something about a blog that brings out the worst in some people. It's the only communication tool that I've ever used where people attack you personally. Of all the abuse (which is fundamentally different to criticism) I've taken over the last two years, it has never been in person, never by e-mail, never by phone; it has always been in the comments section of a blog (the Guardian for example) . In all of the others forms, people are much more respectful. Maybe it's simply because it's more apparent that you're human.
