Personal details and journalism

Emily Gould, formerly of Gawker, has a piece in the New York Times Magazine this week about her experience with making her personal life very public online.

I think that her particular line of blogging (making fun of pseudo-celebrities) lends itself a little more to the kind of problem that she created for herself more than most journoblogging.

But as blogging tugs journalism into more personal arenas, and as more journalists become bloggers, I think this is a good topic to be aware of.
