Are your employees blogging? You should consider whether its time to update your company’s technology policies to deal with the advent of employee blogging. While many employees have had websites for years, blogging and RSS technology (the Web 2.0 as they are now calling it) brings web publishing to the masses. It’s incredibly easy for even the most committed Luddite to publish content on the Web and update it by email or with a few clicks of the mouse. At the same time, the last few years has seen a revolution in public perception regarding publishing. There has been a dramatic shift in news and opinion reporting to an online format and employees who never considered being an author in the past are now publishing on line in droves. Thus, while web publishing issues have been with us for some time, companies will now increasingly face the myriad of issues that are raised by employee blogging. Here are a couple of posts to get you started in analyzing the issues:
