Organizational Development - old version: Blogs to watch

Why Blogs?

A blog (blending of the words: web and log) is essentially a type of website that is openly maintained by an author or group of authors. It is made up of individual entries, usually posted in reverse chronological order, that can incorporate text, video, audio, graphics, and more. 

What distiguishes blogs from plain old websites is their interactive nature.  Through the comments or other widgets the audience can interact with the content and author.  Blogs also allow users to search by defined tags and can push the latest content (e.g. RSS feed) to its subscribers.
