Double posting
So less than a week into this public blogging thing, I'm wondering about the wisdom of saying I will publish everything I write on the bronlea.wordpress blog on this one too.
My concern is that people searching for articles may find this one (since the titles and words would be identical) rather than the other. Also, it really feels like repeating myself ( and I don't like to repeat myself). And a further concern: if anything does ever get published by someone else, would there be copyright issues? But if I don't double post, do you want to have to read two blogs?
So I'm asking you. Double post? Or when i do write something on the wordpress site, should I just link it from here so you know it's there? Help me out, please.

Choose one account over double posting. Only post there. Change the privacy settings of an individual post if you'd like to keep one post more private than the others.
Else, keep your personalities split, posting different topics on each account.
Most blog readers use a news feed anyways to read their blogs, so reading your two blogs is as simple as subscribing to both one time, and then both show up in their news feed from then on.
My opinion anyways
Agree with Jansen; another option is to link to the other post with a short summary. Posting identical articles can get you spammed in search engines for duplicate content.
