Importantly, using a pseudonym that passes as a real name works much better. People are happy to assume it is a real name, so you get all the advantages of trust in real person, but none of the disadvantages of being that person.
I actually admire people who can and have succesfully separated their IDs and kept them so. I can't do it, never have been able to.
Which is why I always use my real name, that works as a constant reminder to me that it's being archived.
PEople are objecting to pingbacks? I know they're buggy, again, shouldn't have been released without proper testing, again, and everything, but finding out who's linking to a post is easy, some blogs even have it built into the template itself.
I get the Facebook crossover thing, but pingbacks? Ah well, my use case compared to most peoples use case is fradically different, but I'm nowhere near as unusual as some seem to think.
