Hey Robert,

just wanted to tell you that you made a BIG difference in my world. We met at an event on my first day in the US, my first day in Silicon Valley and you are one of the nicest people I met since I came to this area.

You introduced me to ppl, showed me the original hp garage and took me with you to sf new tech meetup.

You're a great guy and I'll never forget how you treated me when nobody else gave a shit.

Thanks again
Steli

Blogs are a reflection of the person who write them and the society we live in, the same as our TV, radio, etc....

Thinking blogs would be any different is naive. And even so, I share your feelings...

Glad you read through your comments - and just may be picked up on my comment about how you dealt with your son. Your kids will grow up super fast, your wife and you will grow older. No life is eternal, so make the most of it. your blogging is good, but a break won't kill you- or us for that matter. Live the real world, with your closest family and friends.

Takes a lot of guts to admit being in a situation like this. Even more so to do it publicly, and then do the logical thing which is take a couple of steps back.

Suddenly my interest in following Scobleizer shot up a 100%...

Sometimes you have to be angry to start making a difference and changing the world for the better - else you are a Pollyanna and the world will never change, but you will just think it is better.

@186
I agree, particapating in your own blog is blogging

Kent Beck on ease at work

I think this is core to bofhing v constructive dialogue; the 'no capes' approach to stuff.

It also feels a good fit for thoughts like Jimmy Wales' suggestion some time back that we need to 'disagree safely'.
I think wikis are teaching us much about the skills we need to develop in order to have free participative spaces where we use good skills instead of fences to keep things constructive and usefully negotiable.

I am probably not the only one who has been reading this blog for a while who would ever hire Chris for anything.

Pimping his company constantly here (the only one doing so),
threatening lawsuits (in a comment thread !?! thats called a troll),
bragging about going to the gym,etc. etc.
is not the best way to attract customers.

The candle on the cake is misreading contacts as contracts

Hey Robert

I am really glad to know that your little one will have such great parents, its always been obvious how much you care about your family and the world around us. When I began my journey into being a blogger, I kept hearing your name and decided to check your place out. I was taken with how kind you were, how you really went all out to explain things for newbies like myself, and how you just seemed to be a really nice guy.
I hope you get to relax and enjoy your new baby when he gets here, but I also hope your not away too long because your a big influence on so many of us!
all the best :-)

@184. I'm throwing the red flag out on this. Commenting on other blogs, if that is what you are suggesting, I don't think qualifies as being "back". But commenting on your own blog? Seems the spirit of the "break" was violated. ;-). I think we need to go up to the booth for a reply ruling.

Robert, I'm glad to see you commenting here, but I hope your break from "real" blogging ends soon. I check my NetVibes feed every day, sad to see the latest post is still "Things on my mind..." You were wise to take a pause. I hope its healing effect brings you back refreshed--and soon!

Robert--Taking a break is not a bad idea; everyone needs to get recharged at some point I'm amazed you've endured for this long, leading the way in your own way in this crazy new world. I"m a few years older than you meaning I've almost certainly made more mistakes; one thing I do know is it doesn't do much good to beat yourself up--we could all have done better with our families, our spouses (speaking as a divorced dad) and our lives. Keep looking ahead, not back, and figuring out what the next chapter of your life will be. We've all learned and benefited from your postings and perspective the last few years. And no matter what your state of mind is today, I have a feeling you're just getting warmed up. Let me know if I can ever help and good luck.

@179 and @!80....

Whoa!!! I think we need a ruling here. Does Scoble commenting on HIS OWN BLOG count as being back???? If so,I'll take my winnings in cash as we've snapped the "streak" at 4 days, which was my bet.

Can we get a ruling on this? ;-)

"I don’t tolerate people who threaten to sue other commenters. That’s not fair behavior here."

I understand. I'm also sure you know you could have stopped Valleywag and others long ago but chose not to as your strategy.
I'll keep reading it.

Robert Scoble — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 18:51:12 -0000

Chris (and everyone). I know Chris does follow up his lawsuit threats, no matter how frivolous they might seem to you and me. So, be careful here.

Chris: I think you've lost your rights to participate in my community here. When I do start blogging again I'm going to start blocking your messages.

Sorry to do this, but I've gotten so many complaints about your behavior here that I'm no longer going to put up with it. I don't tolerate people who threaten to sue other commenters. That's not fair behavior here.

Chris Heuer: you missed where I updated my philosophy and have repeated that new philosophy several times: it is important to get it right out of the gate.

But, even if you missed that there's a HUGE difference between totally making shit up about someone (he was fired) to getting some "shading" wrong about an idea that was being discussed.

When I wrote about the Social Media Press Release I was discussing an idea. If I got it wrong, you should have pointed out how I did. I seem to remember you doing that. I also seem to remember linking back to your updates.

That's TOTALLY DIFFERENT than what a certain "gossip" site did to me (and is continuing to do to me).

Crap,
Look at what you did, you have LayZ talking about religion, and everybody swapping barbs.
Its been several comments since anybody said anything techie.

I thought last week, what it would be like, if the science and or environmental world had "a Scoble" in that field - the interesting passion and knowledge, with both breadth and depth, but also how to actually link the fun with the meaningful - the truly helping ourselves and future generations. Maybe an angle is what's required, that and a small break - perspective can be useful, and taking stock is good.

Chris and Dawn D.: take it off line!

Re: Things on my mind…

Chris — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 16:56:10 -0000

That's good enough. Next time please stick to the facts. I will do my best to be factual as well.
I do not want any trouble, but I do not want to be misrepresented either.
Thanks
