Of course not everybody sees it as a literary exercise; I´m going to choose an example from Batlord, one because it´s on this page and two because I´m confident he´ll understand that I´m joking, not criticising. Anyway, here´s an example of non-literary posting:-

The reason I don´t tell anyone that I post here is because once it´s out there in the real world, I have no control over who knows. One friend tells another friend and before I know it my boss is reading my posts and my Auntie Matilda is saying, "If he can spare time for his MB friends, why can´t he write a letter to me?"
