Watching what you say

On occasion one gets reminded how small and connected this internet thing is. I just received an e-mail regarding a second review of a beer. The author basically thanked me for trying the beer again and reviewing it again because he though my first review was a bit harsh.

I was a bit shocked that someone actually read my reviews. But doubly shocked that they would take the time to thank me and explain the differences in the brewery, process and ingredients since my first review.

As I’m sure some (or one of the only two) readers would agree – it is easy to forget that other people read what you write. I suppose it helps keep you honest.
