Provided you are willing to be open and honest about your successes and failures (which actually makes you more trustworthy) you can become a resource simply by laying down a path for others to follow. Surveys often suggest that the message that people trust most comes from 'someone like me'. Great point - and thanks for taking the time to comment!

I fully agree with you about becoming an expert via direct or indirect association with other learned sources! Sites like StumbleUpon, Google searches, Blog directories... allow you to gain knowledge quickly and use it if you have the ability to find the nuggets that your readers want. There are some rocket scientists out there that few people can understand; you can apply your research,perspective and communication (writing) ability! I'm becoming an expert in explaining Blogger features after installing some and getting burned. A trusted resource in this example would be someone who actually uses/experienced the subject matter. Now that could also be by research or case study.
