Palate Press: The Online Wine Magazine by Bloggers

Editor's Note: Palate Press is an online magazine that features wine writers from all walks of life. From citizen bloggers to big wig writers, it's packed with stories from wines across the globe.

Over the course of evolution, man has found newer, and at times, better ways of accomplishing a goal. Through logic, creativity and community, we have excelled past old ways of thinking and doing, by embracing change, growth and innovation. The printing press is a tool that was, and still is, effective for ...

Popular Wine Blogs = Credible Wine Blogs

Credibility is a strange term to me. When I sit with the word, the first feeling that comes to mind is trust. Am I trustworthy? Can people trust what I say as true and accurate? Can they come to me knowing that I will continually do my best to give them advice and information that is valid based on my experience or on the experience of others? Feels heavy, as if I have a thousand eyes looking at me saying "are you a good and honest human being"? I hope I am. I try to be. But I can't guarantee that I am successful everyday. I bring the term credibility to the floor today because many people, both in print and in the internet, have debated the credibility of a blogger. In short are bloggers trustworthy and honest?
