Hello, I’m new here. I have finished Beefcakes Bootcamp and feel inadequate for the large job ahead, but I am ready to give it a go.

I have avoided intentionally, any message board presence for a number of years, No facebook, no twitter, though Youtube must know quite abit about me. I don’t have a job to lose but have tried to avoid an overt online presence. I am presuming nothing online is truly anonymous but I thought to use a fresh email and got one from gmx. I assume they captured my IP address to assure themselves I wasn’t a robot.

I noticed most/many places want to use facebook, or twitter or something like that as a sign in to enable comments. I was going to start off with responding to news articles at the site carrying the article.

So Twitter wants a telephone number; facebook wants a real name, so I haven’t completed either yet.

So, have y’all any advice on what you do to sign up and post with minimal disclosure?

Giving up that information is not going to stop me if I have to, but I thought I’d check and see if y’all have any tips to share before I just plunge in.
