In a recent ruling, the SEC will recognize corporate blogs as public disclosure.   IR Web Reports states that, "...companies can rely on their websites and blogs to meet the public disclosure requirements under Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure), according to new guidance unanimously approved by the US Securities and Exchange Commission today."

This means that more companies will be utilizing public forums such as blogs to relay their most critical company facts and issues to the public.  Long gone are press releases, welcome to the new age.  From now on organizations will be communicating by using blogging platforms such as Compendium Blogware.
