I sometimes worry that if someone reads the wrong entry, it might actually <em>prevent</em> me from getting a job.

I also got my current flatmate by commenting on his blog when he announced he needed a new flatmate. Just when I was so desperate of not finding a place to stay that I was thinking of blogging about the search! So, in a way, blogging got me a job and a roof.</p> Funny enough, I got recruited partly because of my experience with blogs; the job offer was a blog post that said experience with blogs was a plus — and both the recruiter and the coworker who interviewed me are bloggers.
