Meet Phil Anthropod from Planet Claire. He writes a blog called "Hail Sons and Daughters from Carnegie"
I currently work at a medium-sized, east coast foundation. The views expressed in this blog are mine and not necessarily—or even likely—those of my employer. I prefer to write anonymously so I can spare my employer possible embarrassment. Writing anonymously also frees me from the immoderate politeness that often stifles debate in our sector.
A typepad blog isn't necessarily anonymous. (I learned this from having just helped some Cambodian bloggers who want to write their criticisms of the government without an AK47 in their face and researched options for anonymous blogging.) Read Ethan Zuckerman's Guide to Anonymous Blogging or this chapter from the Handbook for Bloggers and Cyber-Dissidents from Reporters Without Borders.
