Darren Rowse explains the pros and cons of linking profusely to material outside your website. I'm clearly an avid outlinker, but I agree that sometimes it's best to focus your readers' attention on your own site. blogHelper reminds biz bloggers to link to their own material whenever possible.
Darren also scratches the surface of something I need to look at more deeply: the recent Onalytica release of a questionable "top blogs about blog marketing" list. (You've gotta see what Kami Huyse says about that and other iffy studies.)
Mark White delves into the benefits and uses of team blogs - a must-read if you're considering making an internal (hidden from public view) team business blog.
Chad Horenfeldt, a hidden gem of a business blogger, unveils his Worst Fortune 500 Blogs - Part 1. Awesome idea and hilariously true writing. Why are so many big companies' blogs so awful?
Dave Sifry announces Technorati's third birthday and celebratory design enhancements to the premier blog search engine. Also something I must study further!
Darren Rowse's latest group blogging project illuminates our collective regret: what we would do differently in our blogging if we could start over again.
And last but not least, Debbie Weil tells Strumpette to stuff it. You go, Debbie! Anonibloggers need to be very wary about how they proceed in this time of increasing emphasis on transparency.
Let me know what you think of these resources!
Always with the instance on "transparency" by those that do not fully understand full what the word means.
With regard to anonymity... excuse me, if Benjamin Franklin were alive, he surely would have an anonymous blog. Franklin truths invariably arrived under a variety of names. Ol’ Ben knew that those he put a spotlight on would seek to crush him.
That said, here's something more current. Watch this interview of David Weinberger (author of Cluetrain): http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4898047960459875270 . See what he thinks of your ridiculous assertion.
