A British student writing for the Guardian’s website recently attracted the criticism of thousands of readers with his very first post.
Max Gogarty, 19,had started a blog about his trip to India and Thailand. The idea was not particularly original and, in many people’s view, the writing wasn’t either.
Within minutes, people began to post negative comments: “I have been more entertained cleaning mould from my refrigerator than I was reading your first post,” and the less amusing but equally harsh, “Nil interest, Full Stop.”

So how did Max obtain his job? The Guardian’s online community soon reached their own conclusion: “Great to see nepotism is alive,” said one poster.
Max’s father is a travel writer who had previously published work in the Guardian. Within minutes, one poster had provided a link to an article from 2002,in which Max’s dad writes about a trip to Thailand with his family. Many were quick to assume Max had used his father’s connection to get his job. By the end of the next day, the criticism was so heavy that the blog was closed, but the damage had been done.
Max’s experience highlights the difference between traditional media and the internet. As online community specialist Dan Wilson writes in his blog: “In the blogsphere respect comes from below. Readers have power and opinions that count. You have got to be real and attractive to the people who have read you.”
Part of the reason for this is that falsehoods and half –truths can be exposed immediately online. The moral here is to be careful about what you read and write online. Always be sure to think about why a person might be writing something, and don’t necessarily believe what you have read.
