I figure, if people don't want to read it, they can easily glance over it on the feed. I know a lot of people talk about branding a blog and all that jazz, but my personal opinion is that it does not matter. I follow people that are interesting, and I will read it if I so happen to be there on the feed, like how I just stumbled upon this :).
The tags should also help with filtering (Note to nobody in particular: If I poke at your feed, I should be able to filter out resteems and possibly tags that I may not want. Hum.)
So my vote is, go for it (no alt). It sounds like an interesting read. I won't unfollow if I see a few things I'm not interested in.
Yes, it’s really all about branding, and I didn’t avoid working a corporate job and a major record deal my whole life to become a brand here at steemit. That’s me though.
