Less a matter of free will and more a cultural driver. I think if you have trouble with U.S. nuance then I'd advise you to stay clear of doing business in China.

First person is the way to go. One of my least-favorite things about "marketing" blogs is the corporate headshot. And again, along with the third person voice, I think this is more of a US thing. I don't really get it. I think it's really tacky. That said, it is a free world and you can do what you want. I’m with you, Asi. First person is the way to go.

My blog is a targeted blog to marketing type folks. It is written in such a way that anybody can copy and paste it without re-writing it. If I wrote it from the first person, it would not make sense in other applications i.e.: conference bio, magazine article, etc. 2. I use the same bio everywhere, <a href="http://www.radicaltrust.ca/about/who-is-collin-douma/" rel="nofollow">My blog</a>, <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/pub/1/5a9/4a5" rel="nofollow">LinkedIn</a>, Other <a href="http://www.canadianmarketingblog.com/contributors/collin-douma/" rel="nofollow">marketing community blogs</a> I work on.     . .
