Weblogs winding their way into business nets

Weblogs winding their way into business nets

I need to write a report for the Governement Office's Intranet project. In it I need to say what will be the next steps. So, I'm lloking around for some quotes about blogging in business and this geezer 'Rock' has pointed out some nice little bits for me...

With his budget and staff slashed, Connecticut state CIO Rock Regan is looking to Weblogs as a key tool to keep his organization running.

...the ability to capture knowledge about current problems and upcoming technologies and distribute it across a company quickly has become critical, he said. Weblogs let employees jot down notes and ideas on pages available across the corporation.

"We desperately want to use [Weblogs] for project management," because the department, which serves 65 agencies, has so many projects that it could benefit from a shared knowledgebase, he said.

Regan said Weblogs are proving vital in breaking down bureaucratic walls. "My people in general don't communicate well on projects," he said.

Weblogs are proving a way for employees to realize what they have in common.
