28 February 2002   

 

3rd February 2002: "Blog the Organization : Shelved My agent has spent a few months pitching "Blog the Organization" to publishers, and he's received no more than a lukewarm response. A few months ago I switched from an "All About Weblogs" approach to one that emphasized "Weblogs for Business." The latter generated a bit more interest, but still not enough. And it wasn't as though the publishers were ignorant. We encountered some that had a clear understanding of weblogs. Ultimately, I think the publishers are right, and that there isn't a sufficient market to justify the effort."

 

Surprising news. But I guess the cluetrain is too much for most companies. But some, some will give it a whirl. Perhaps not big enough for a book publisher, not yet. 20 years perhaps. So would that mean that some companies would be 20 years ahead? Is that risk management?

Hey, there's discussion of blogging at work in the klogs discussion group on Yahoo.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/klogs/
Klogs are knowledge blogs. Check out the following for more info, if you haven't already.

You are blogged mate. I saw this message on a mailing list and thought about you. Some good links there. I'm already on the klog mailing list, been so since it started. Bit quiet lately, but the early archives are worth reading. I think people got the point quite quickly. And the idea is... bloging is fun, blogging is easy, it's not the techology issues that matter, XML-RPC this, discussion/coments/feeds that. It's the people stupid. KISS. And blogging is kissy. Kissy kissy in fact.

 

Imagine 200 bloggers in a company of a 1,000. "If only," you say. If only it were sooner, says I.
