The Nashville Technology Council hosted an event January 12th on Blogging and Business. The event was well attended at Nashville State Community College by about 100 or so.
Brittney Gilbert, WKRN Channel 2's Blog Producer makes the point that people are talking about you, it's whether you choose to listen or not. The point was also made that news aggregating software like FeedDemon is a fast growing way to use the internet, as opposed to surfing. So for business, it's not so much how you would directly monetize a company blog - although that's sure to happen. At this point, it's a great way to engage the customer, develop an online identity and learn how to improve your product.
I started this the Dirmonster Blog as soon as I got home last night and have some great ideas for the company I serve, Acxiom.
