A huge trail of controversies and myths still continue to exist within the blogosphere. This article was written to dispel some of the blog myths outlined below. Any ordinary Joe can start a blog. Not quite sure about that! Do you enjoy writing? Do you have specialized knowledge you want to share? Are you passionate about a certain topic? If you answered No to any or all of these questions, think again. Anyone can set up a blog. This comes down to the blog host you are using. Some hosts get far more technical than the average user may be ready for. Some just require you to fill a one-step form and your blogs will be set up in seconds! Blogging is just a breeze, I'm done before you know it. When you have a clear idea of what you want to say, writing posts may take just a few minutes. Those that involve complex issues or thoughts on the other hand might be a little harder to crack. Most blogs are political. Not really. Many blogs focus on political topics but most blogs are just bloggers discussing their lives, loves and travels. Blogs are in competition with the main-stream media. This is true in a few cases (not as many cases as bloggers would have you think). Just recently, there have been some very popular and influential social and politically-oriented blogs that have caused main-stream media outlets to back-track and change their coverage of important events. Bloggers just criticize and have no new information to add. This may be true in some cases but blogging today is much more than the personal activity it used to be. Corporations, media outlets, public personalities, politicians and experts in almost every field have now joined the ranks of blog producers. Considering all this expertise, one would have to say that bloggers have a lot of new information to add to any debate. Blogs don't always tell the truth. That's a bit of an overstatement. You may read bad information and even intentional untruths in blogs but, for the most part, bloggers who state facts are stating what they honestly believe to be fact. It is always up to the reader to verify that any information they receive is accurate information.
