Corporate Blogs, why you should have one.
If you are reading this then you already know what a blog is. If this is the first blog you have visited I'll give you a quick run down of a blog.
Blog is short for web-log. As with most things Internet it was shortened to blog. Blogs have been popular amongst the digerati for a couple few years now. Why people have blogs are as varied as there are people with blogs. I started my first blog as a way to keep relatives up-to-date on my eldest's activities.
