Anonymous blogger wielding some serious power...not really

From the Edge Financial Daily:

Much has been made of the "anonymous" blogger who has criticized many authoritative figures in Malaysia.  Just who is this blogger?  is there an ulterior motive?

I think there is, it is money.  Money from advertisers who pay the blog because of the huge amount of hits that are generated.  People in Malaysia love conspiracies.  Blame who you want, but as long as a few hundred thousand hits are generated, the "anonymous" blogger will come up with lots of blog posts, true or not.

By poking and prodding some of the largest news agencies, the anonymous blogger has in effect gotten free publicity.  Now even more people will go visit his blogs generating thousands in revenue, if not, tens of thousands.  All he has to do is come up with creative blog posts.  

If there is one thing I know about the blogger, is that the blogger has blogged somewhere before, probably well known.  To generate the amount of content that consistently requires a lot of will power that not everyone has.  The content seems similar and consistent, indicating not much variation in the people that write the blogs, thus a singular blogger and not a huge group.    Beginner bloggers don't generate this kind of content overnight.

He's familiar with the style of "online" investigation although "online" investigation can seem legitimate, it really isn't.  Lots of holes can be found in these "online" investigations.  Don't read too much into the "anonymous blogger", I won't.
