Thing 3

Ok, it has been two months since my last post and at this rate I'll have 23 Things finished by Christmas 2012. Anyway back to the personal brand thing. I spent ages thinking of a blog title and although I'm aware that being distracted could give a negative impression I like to think of the positive side of being easily distracted by new things. Generally I would rather use a made up name as a username rather than my real name because my surname is fairly rare making me easy to trace. I also run any username through the Urban Dictionary to ensure it doesn't have an undesired second meaning. Also usernames can depend on what has already been taken, so although I try to use the same ones if I'm late into something I have to think of a new one.

I was relieved that the Google search for my name found the real me straight away, hurrah for silly surnames! When I was Morris the same search brought up stories about serial killers and sporting achievements.

I'll keep with The Distracted Librarian until I can think of something better. Now on to Thing 4, should be appearing sometime in November!
