…for the stuff I was sharing on Google Reader, or should I post it to G+ the way Google wants me to do?  

It’s mostly economics, statistics, public policy stuff. In my mind, the “audience” for it is R’s college friends in NYC (this is just my mental image as I dunno who actually would be reading) and they’re all on G+, so I suppose I should go there.  

But… my family is on G+!  And it’s no fun to argue politics with your family (or in my case, to defend cryptic (lazy) notes on links to posts on Marginal Revolution, just in case they are interpreted as endorsements).  

Plus, G+ is designed to be a timesuck like Facebook, and it doesn’t look nice when all your posts are lined up.  What I liked about Reader, even if no one read it, was that it generated this nice clean blog-looking thing of all your notes.

It’s only fair to read other people’s items if you want them to read yours.  But I kind of liked just putting stuff out there in public without expecting any kind of feedback, knowing other people would see it as a bold link until they marked it as read, and having other people’s stuff waiting for me to read until I marked it as read.  Maybe I should just make another wordpress blog.
