Where can you let your real self out - your true self?

Where do you find it easy to express yourself? twitter? in real life? Facebook blog? Quora? or...? I have been having this question and problems which "account"/"I" is closer to my real self, and I have doubt of my identity, a little.

tynamite's avatar This question has a flawed pretense from the start. Unless you are pretentious or fake, it is impossible not to express your real self on a social networking website. You personally asked this question and categorised it under Self-Awareness. Is that not expressing yourself? If you think about it, you'll find that it is you expressing yourself, for you to do that. Everything you do online, fills a jigsaw to give you a more fuller representation of yourself. It's as simple as that. Leave your wayfaring sense of identity uncertainties, at the door. You're doing your means by default.

Creatively, I have things spread out on 5 websites.

To communicate with others hundreds of miles away, there's Quora obviously, and Twitter which I haven't tweeted since December last year. All that is getting locked off as I've quit those things. I read every tweet that goes on my timeline, as my timeline gets delivered to my email, so I never miss a tweet.

You can also start blogging about your life if you want to. It's a good thing to look back on, in retrospect.

I like the idea of my online activity not blurring with my life. I check my Blackberry, delete an email, and then I'm back to real life.

What's an assertion, and what should I type in?

Compesh is a question and answer (and debate) website, so before you make a debate, you better learn what an assertion is. I suppose you already know what a question is, and that you've typed it in the box. ;)

An assertion, is basically a statement you can make, that is either true or false.

Richer people have better health.

The question for that would be, Do richer people have better health?

And don't forget to make your assertion, match your question.
