This is a joke, right?

Blogging is about SHOPPING?

Next thing you’ll be telling me consumer confidence is a measure of how well the country’s doing.

Oh.

I fully support the use of blogs as a source of advice for the discerning reader.

Yes, but this is assuming that bloggers themselves do not have their own private agendas or mischeivious sides. Plus, as one gets the feeling that they are in direct communication with the blogger it can be easy to fall into the trap of automatic belief due to a mistaken intimacy.

Most blogs are biased in some way so I think you have to check lots of blogs to get a true opinion of something. I would also think that blogs are much more open to bribery/fraud etc than traditional print. People can write whatever they like in blogs, whether it’s true or not. So beware, it might be all lies..

Having said all that, I do mostly trust the advice I get on blogs, so I’m not sure at all what I’m going on about

Blogs are more transparent and honest – therefore for shopping or political discussion blogging has got to be the way forward.

We must keep blogging!
