Do you ever worry that someone could find you in RL from your postings on here? Or are you more careful than that?

For example, I posted once (ages ago) about where we were going be at half term and vaguely worried about it at the time and wondered whether I should have done so.

I also posted some details about another event which could have led someone to my rl name and address (it's my old one so it's not relevant now)

I haven't tried but I wonder if I searched on a particular mumsnetter's name, would I be able to find something that would lead me to their rl details were I to want them? I wouldn't, of course as I'm not a weirdo or a stalker but this is the www and anyone else could.

So, should we all be careful what we reveal here? Or am I being over cautious?

If only it was that way round and not us listening to them

i can't say it's something i worry about, i don't give out too much info on here, now if there was someone on here that i knew in real life then they would spot me.

Koshka, if you are referring to me (knitting girl) please don't worry, my earlier reference about feeling freaked out wasn't about you, (i did say i had been recognised on here already by someone else, which only worried me because I was talking about something which affected other people)
You haven't 'outed' me on here and we have talked about the need for privacy here and in RL already? And it works both ways, no-one on here will hear anything about you from me, or in RL.

Of course, if you're not referring to me, I'll just get me coat....

you could easily find out who I am, but I don't tend to post personal stuff anyway, certainly not under this name
But i suppose I think that I'm not interseting enough to look for anyway

Hmm, I see. Legacy & Cod, point taken.
