HW#13 Business blogging more important.

After reading Stephen Baker and Heather Greens chapter "Blogs Will Change Your Business," we were asked to express our opinion on how we feel about business blogging. Is it more important than blogging for communication? I believe that blogging for business is a lot more important. Think of the impact that it has on businesses, whether it is good or bad. In the chapter its talks about a man named Mark Jen who worked for Google. He made a blog and in it he complained about googles health plan and how his previous jobs health plan was better. Google later saw this blog and fired Jen. Two weeks later Google was blogbusted for overreacting, and sending warnings to dozens of bloggers at the company. People who read Jen's blog may be turned off from the company because of his views and experiences with Google. There are 9 million blogs out there, 40,000 new ones everyday. People are able to see how businesses work, and what goes on with them, whether it turns them on or off from the company. So it’s a good thing too, plus other businesses are able to see and then compete with that business. So I truly believe that business blogging is starting to have a huge affect with businesses itself.
