I would have to strongly agree with the standards set in "Weblog Ethics" by Rebecca Blood. With so much garbage littering the Internet now, I think it would be nothing short of beneficial to follow the steps she has listed. By following these standards, the weblogger will prove to be credible, even if the weblogger posts a new blog to correct a mistake in his/her previous blog. Credible is an attribute that is not found very often on internet search results these days.
By providing the resources that Blood mentions; such as linking references, correcting misinformation, and keeping original postings as they are and available to view at all times, make for a more reliable source. These standards, combined with her other recomendations will help people like myself better able to sort out/distinguish the discredible information that is out there.
