Blogs
Don't go unnoticed on the Internet. These days, it's more important than ever to ensure that your online marketing campaigns are reaching as many people as possible.
A blog (short for web log) is a user-generated website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order.
Blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic.
The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of most early blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual although some focus on photographs (photoblog), sketchblog, videos (vlog), or audio (podcasting), and are part of a wider network of social media.
The term "blog" is a portmanteau, or, in other words, a blend of the words web and log (Web log). "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
In November 2006, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 57 million blogs and 2007 about 70 million blogs.
Why Blogging?
In the past couple of years, a lot has been written about why companies should have blogs, and why they need to tune in to consumer-generated media, as well as examples of the benefits of doing a good job and the horror stories when things go bad.
But I haven't seen much if anything about how to do it. How many blogs should a company have? What tools do they use to monitor blogs? How much time does all this take?
- I've several blogs
- It's not yet clear to me what value my blogs are going to generate
- The fact: I'm less and less disconnected, but not so connected as I would like to be

BLOG GLOBE de Florent Muller et Roger Motte “Le journal intime est mort, vive le blog! Véritable petite révolution, le blog est en passe de conquérir le monde et compte déjà 13 millions d'adeptes. Ces journaux personnels, diffusés sur Internet peuvent être rédigés, consultés et commentés en quelques clics seulement et ce par n'importe qui.Dès lors, toutes sortes de blogs fleurissent sur le Web. Encore assez méconnus en France, ils ont un poids considérable aux Etats-Unis, notamment depuis les attentats du 11 septembre 2001.Certains osent même défier les géants de la presse américaine en proposant leur vision singulière de l'actualité.” Taken: 09 août 2006.
