Cath Lawson is the one who introduced me to the term "knowledge gatherer" for these kind of folk. Unfortunately, I've actually hired a few of these to work for me and trust me, it's easier to unsubscribe from a blog than to fire an employee! Barbara,

Cath Lawson is the one who introduced me to the term “knowledge gatherer” for these kind of folk. Unfortunately, I’ve actually hired a few of these to work for me and trust me, it’s easier to unsubscribe from a blog than to fire an employee!

I've been on blogs that at first I think "this person really knows their stuff", and then I continue to read. As the days, weeks, and months go by, they let things "slip" and I soon realize they are faking it. As much as I hate to unsubscribe from blogs, those I do. <abbr><em>Barbara Swaffords last blog post..<a href="http://bloggingwithoutablog.com/blog-registry-open-mic/" rel="nofollow">Blog Registry - Open Mic</a></em></abbr> Hi Kathy – You made me laugh with this post.

I was just contacted by an SEO "expert" who is anything but!!! Because I'm "web savvy" I could tell with a quick glance at his PR and Alexa rankings. However, he has a long list of people who he claims are clients who are obviously more clueless than he is. I HOPE this is just a case of he thinks he knows more than he does rather than he's a crook and a liar! Like I said in that comment on Barbara's blog, there are times when I want to run SCREAMING from this "niche" of helping translate "Geek Speak" into plain English. So I have to assume that if there IS an honest politician in Washington - that he/she feels the same way! Ari, NICE COMMENT!!! Thanks for leaving it!! If you hang around her for long, you'll see I'm a BIG believer in authenticity as the key to long term success. (Politics aside!) @Betsy
