For those of you who are interested in the continued debate over pseudonymity and anonymity in the blogosphere, I found an interesting post on a Physics blog, “Backreaction” (a current phase I’m going through in terms of my Netvibes preferences). This particular post takes up the issue of anonymous commentary, which so far has not [...]
