Have You Started A Blog Yet? Do You Read A Blog?

These might seem nerdy questions but blogging (blog is a conflation of web log) could be a very big deal indeed.  It’s certainly keeping some business awake at night – newspapers fearing their businesses being undermined, major corporations seeing customer blogs giving the ‘real deal’ on their products, or employees telling it like it really is like.  

As with many things internet, the business applications are further advanced in the US than they are here.  Below are just a few links that show how things are taking off.
