VITAMEDIAS
To Blog or Not... The blog is the evolutionary child of two previous killer applications, the "listserv" or mailing list and the news group or Usenet.[...]
The blog has many advantages over its predecessors. [...]
The blog is also being championed as an alternative knowledge management system which enables users to publish all their knowledge and expertise to their co-workers and employees. [...]
On the positive side, when a blog owner takes the time and effort to market it to the right audience, the result can be a wonderful client development tool. Unfortunately, too many blogs are painful to read and not exactly user-friendly when used to find relevant information.
Perhaps in a year or two when the technology has been improved they will be worth a revisit. But for now, I'll concentrate on trying to organize my in-box as I am deluged by the original and still killer app: e-mail.
