As the modern saying goes “I read it on the Internet, so it must be true”. Of course we all know this isn’t true, however with the recent fad of everyone having a blog site now, it is important to remember this.
Blogs are intended to both spread facts and opinions, however most of the time the later is what is written. This tip is just a reminder that what you read on a blog site is not necessarily true. In other words, I wouldn’t recommend using unconfirmed resources on an official research or similar projects. This includes blogs, wikis (i.e. Wikipedia), forums, etc.
This site is not an exception to the rule either. While I do my best to make sure everything I post is true, I do interject my opinion sometimes as well as make mistakes.
By no means am I saying all blog (et. al.)Â sites are not credible, but rather you should take most with a grain of salt.
