Small business authority Steve Strauss gives a nod to small business blogging in USA Today's "Ask an Expert" column, which was published on Monday.  Describing his own path of personal conversion, he writes:
When blogging first made its way into our consciousness a few years ago, I was as skeptical as they come. Was I really heard to remark, "It's the CB radio of our time!" Yes, I was.
But, hallelujah! I see the light! I've become a convert. How much so? Yes, I have just launched my own blog, Business as UNusual.
Strauss goes on to make the case for small business blogging, citing many of the same points that we make on our own blogs here at Compendium: networking, product promotion, search engine visibility, customer interaction, and reputation building.

He also offers blogging tips, linking to sites that demonstrate what he's discussing.
