It's a blog eat blog world and I'm just living in it

Thursday, April 17, 2008 by Lynsey Rosencrans
While speaking with a few of my friends the other night, I was asked, "What exactly is a blog for." My dear, dear friend, who shall remain nameless, but will know I'm talking about him, mentioned that he thought blogs were strictly for banter, quick jabs and worst of all slander. He had been reading a lot about how companies utilize blogs to attack their competitors and had the notion that a blog could be more hurtful than helpful. I, being the level headed girl that I am, said, "Yes, but a blog is completely about emotion and how you handle that emotion toward your audience."
 
In the wonderful world of corporate blogging, you have to learn how to hold your tongue and respond to a competitors comments tactfully, making sure your not letting your anger get int the way of your writing. It's one thing to make a passionate point about the industry your in, but it's entirely another to post blatant slander towards a rival. Make sure you keep up with your companies policies and not "bad mouth."
Just keep saying to yourself, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but blogs will never hurt me."
