Sharing with the World

     From the very first blog that I have written for the IHC, I have also posted the links in Facebook as well as in Google+. It was kind of a scary thing at first. I am not usually that outgoing, and definitely don't share with many people the things that I have been blogging about. One cool feature that Blogger has is that you can see who is looking at your blogs. Not exactly who but the originating country and also how they accessed your blog.

It is pretty exciting to know that people outside of the IHC regularly read the blogs that you post. 

     There is a certain amount of anticipation and excitement while you wait for your first like or comment on Kwoon Talk after you post a link. Other social media outlets also provides this instant gratification. But there is a little more to it than just that. Lately I have had the opportunity to spend some time with some "friends for the past". People that I had become friends with through work or other friends or even from high school but have not seen in quite some time. In seeing these people I was amazed how many of them had been reading my blog and had some comments about it. This would not have been possible if I was not posting the links for them on Facebook. I would encourage everyone to take that leap, as scary as it might be, and share your experiences with a wider range of people.
