    The real question is can any "expert" really be trusted? I know a lot of people who claim to be experts as well as people who really are experts. The difference? Those who CLAIM to be experts are usually the loudest voice on a topic. While they may not know what the true or best answer is, they receive attention due t the size of the voice. REAL experts will simply give the answer which makes the most sense and not call the press when they do.

    Britney, you are the second kind of expert. The one who knows by dong, experiencing, and you don't mind sharing. You just keep doing what you are doing. The world will catch up. :)

    If you go and interview people who are successful in a certain area, what can happen is that some people will then start calling *you* the expert. It just happens but I'm not sure why. I think it's "credibility by association" - like when you put up pictures of yourself with some celeb. or whatever.

    I think your point about "giving back to the new media community" is good - don't lose that.
