I'm wary of being too open on the net in terms of identity. That could be from work. I've done research on surveillance issues (once you start looking for them, you see surveillance cameras everywhere! it can get a bit spooky ) and am now a member of Norway's new select committee on privacy (whoo boy, do we ever have some critical things to say about Facebook!!!). So maybe it's kind of a job-related injury: work making me paranoid about web visibility. Still, I do have a plain passport photo on my university-based web page, and I think now another on the privacy commission web site if it's up and open. So maybe some day I'll change to a real-life image, like when I have a bike-related picture I feel good about, which may be when I've lost another 7kg, or simply been photographed on a ride in something more presentable than a wine red rain jacket and hornet yellow rain pants. Meanwhile, with a bit of detective smarts, you can find out who I am at the Department of Sociology and Political Science, NTNU ... just in case we happen to pass one another on the street in Oslo some day Next Oslo trip, btw, will be Dec. 3-4. Maybe a mini-TE gathering at a coffee shop somewhere?
