I'm not alone! Maybe I am!
This is a bit of a odd one. I typed the url jondennis.blogspot.com into my browser because I know Jon and I admire his blogging. So I was happy when Jon's blog appeared on the screen. I thought I was the only man in London writing about himself and then, out of the blue, along comes Jon to join me on this lonely peak.
But - this is where is gets eery - I checked with Jon and it turns out it is not his blog. There is another Jon Dennis, who is writing as Jon Dennis and - as far as the blogosphere is concerned - is Jon Dennis.
If I didn't know I might start to think this famous Jon Dennis and my Jon Dennis were one and the same. I could be reading his posts and commenting in his comment box without know it was the wrong JD.
Fortunately, he - fake JD - doesn't appear to be writing anything.
All I'm saying is that this whole idea of blogging identities is sometimes a bit wierd because you can never truly know who anybody is. Like, for example, if someone else entirely were writing this blog but you still thought it was me, Seán. It's crazy if you ask me.
