The net doesn’t fail to remember a thing. It’s drifting about out here, zillions of bits and bytes. Thus creating a fixed record because anything ever blogged or written online is stored somewhere permanently. Things travel round a tad, of course, however it all seems to hang around. Thusly anything electronegative written about you, libel it’s called, can break your character for years.

Writing online is a competitive business. The truth is that there is so much competition out there, it can often be hard to make enough money per hour.
