I've been wanting to make this break for a long time. Now that I've got several domains to hold it all, and software that can handle it reasonably well, it's time to go for it. Only I'm having a really hard time regarding where to draw the line.
For those of you that don't know, Jim Reverend isn't my real name. It's a combination of my real name, and a nickname given to me years ago. For the purposes of employment and allowing my family access to certain portions of the things that I put online, I'd like to associate my real name with some of the more family friendly stuff that I offer. If that means merging "Jim Reverend" with my real name and creating another identity for the stuff I'd like to keep hidden, then so be it.
So I've attempted to list out all the types of things that I put online, and break them into categories. I've placed a "*" by the categories that I would like my real name associated with. I've places a "-" by the things that I absolutely do *not* want my real name associated with. The remaining items, I could go either way with.
Of course, those items with the "*"s can never link to the items with the "-"s and vice-versa.
My question for you is three-fold.
First, are there any types of content that I left out that I should categorize? I want to make sure I cover everything to that I can make sure the plan will be easy to follow and obviously separable.
Secondly, do you think that any of the items below should have their categories changed? Have I done a good job at breaking it all up appropriately?
Finally, where should I leave the association with the name "Jim Reverend"? Should I leave it associated with the Technical, Family me, and make up a new name for the more personal things? Should I leave it associated with my personal life and my photography and remove the use of that name for my personal life and technical contributions?
Thank you for your help, it means a lot to me.
