An interesting comment

Blogs have power in proportion to the credibility of their authors. An unfamiliar blog is treated with the same skepticism as any random page on the Internet or press release from an unknown vendor. Credibility must be earned. This is something usually cultivated over time, during the course of multiple return visits, as readers observe the author's responses to external events and readers' comments. Visitors also will peruse archived entries to take the measure of a new blog. Those blogs that represent the authentic voice of a real person by consistently offering a cohesive set of insights over a period of time will achieve the necessary level of credibility for success.

Pete's Point:
I guess this brings us to the real issue for this blog. What is the credibility that is attributed by you - dear readers - to the content of this Blog?
