Hi

Just wanted an opinion on this really but since beginning my PhD I have found myself increasingly using blogs as a sort of means to test out some of my ideas and additionally a place to save some images and links that will prove useful in my research. Is it a good idea to put some of my ideas out there so publicly in terms of plagiarism, or is it best to keep them largely to myself until I perhaps publish them at some future stage? I am presenting a conference paper in a couple of weeks and have just written a blog post which condenses the ideas in this - is it best to keep this one private until after the conference or am I just being a bit paranoid? Any advice would be much welcome.

Thanks
