Hi there,
Thanks for stopping by.
I’ve not been a blogger for that long and I’m certainly not niche. I dart about my everyday life, which includes large chunks of the internet, finding things that interest, annoy or inspire me and then write about them. I write because I like to write and when I think things are cool, I want to share and document them. Yes, I get a kick out of seeing my page views rise and the occasional comment I receive but mainly I write for me and if you read it and like it and come back for more, then that’s awesome too.
Enjoy!

Jo,
What are your thoughts on the current news about celebrity gagging orders?
As it is a hot topic which seems to be hitting the news a lot, I assumed you would have a thought or two. Also it has involved Twitter (which I know you are partial to), and this has caused major scandal.
Do you think that people who cheat, or those who cause hurt and upset to another person by trying to sabotage a relationship should be accountable for their actions within the courts and public eye?
I have been looking at the Laws regarding issues such as “sexting”, which is sending inappropriate messages with sexual content (whether picture or vocabulary) to another party.
The Laws are unclear, but what seems to be pretty clear is that the people who recieve them can choose to pass them on to the police if the texts are deemed sexually inappropriate and harassing if they are unwanted…..food for thought perhaps.
An awful story that I read had a young lady had sent sexually explicit photo messages to a man and ended up being completely embarrassed and mortified as he had posted them on a social networking site and other sites on the internet to teach her a lesson.
I feel all this ties in together, as a sign that there is no decency and moral fibre among a lot of people at the moment. And with Social Networking vibrating with gossip and free speech, no wonder all of these celebrities have been “outed” online!!
How do you feel about all of this??
Do you think that people/celebrities should be “outed” for what they have done? Would it teach them a lesson, or do you think they have to realise for themselves that they cannot get away with acting inappropriately?

Personally, I am shocked and appalled. In fact I am so shocked and appalled that I am not even quite sure what I am shocked and appalled about.
Robert, I share your concerns. I think I am most shocked by the double question marks.
