Should we come up with a mission statement of some sort?

15. That is part of the issue -

There are two scenarios:

something which is available publicly under a real name - or a name not known on DU
something which is unique to DU

Photobucket or flikr work for the second. I have flikr account which has the same name I use on DU, which I use for photos I use exclusively on DU. So anything I share which is hosted there (or anywhere under a name I don't mind being google searchable and tied to DU,

The former is more challenging - and linking the two is trivial if it is textual. For example - I could post things in their entirety here (as text), but a search would bring up both the DU text and the elsewhere posted text. Images are a little more complex, although posting an image in google generates a remarkable number of matches these days. That is where some sort of buzzword for people in the know would be useful - but it would have to be a buzzword shared privately - which makes it challenging.

And, of course, no one should ever rely on not being found out.
