Blogger Asbestos

A couple of months ago I posted a string of blog posts about how we deal with things that challenge us online. Here is another perspective from Blogger Steven Streight. I read it with humor. Some classic advice, but I would not use all of his approaches - to each his/her own. That said, I bet it works for some bloggers. Vaspers the Grate: blogger asbestos
"BLOGGER ASBESTOS
How to Keep Yourself From Getting Burned by Online Flamers: Types of Flamers & How to Respond to Them"
As I read Steven's advice, I wondered how our gender and culture influence our anti-flaming strategies. I suspect strongly with the subsequent impact being that those like us may have a greater chance of responding in the spirit we intended, and when we have little in common, we may infact fan the flames even more.

Ain't it delightful to be human?

Bit of a tangent here, but there's a blogger who's trying to make some money from writing solely about asbestos, because Google Ads pays off mighty big for click-throughs on the subject. Here's the full story. I bet he's well prepared for flames, too.
