I Sense a Cage Match

The People's Mesh vs. The Core Object

But with the right leadership, the "vs." could turn into an "and."

Well Formed

Anatomy of a Well Formed Log Entry. sam's leading an interesting effort to define posts [via anil dash's daily links]

I also like how Sam is using his wiki to complement his blog to loosely structure collaboration.  Developing a shared understanding about a given concept is a great use for a wiki.  He notes clear ground rules and structure up front, but invites others to contribute directly:

If you are willing to live within these bounds, please do contribute to this wiki. Expand on the extensions on separate pages. Link to more detail on attributes. Let everyone know what are essential requirements for your application.

Don't Blog

Phil Wolff is a man of many blogs (some of us call them categories).  He has started Don't Blog, a fictious account of the backlash against commercialization of blogspace. 

On a more serious note, he is blogging the growth of blogging and more blogging at blogcount.

Hiawatha Bray on Blogs

The Globe on Blogs. The Boston Globe today runs an article by Hiawatha Bray in the Business Section on the Weblogs Business Strategy conference last week:

Consider: Every business needs to know what its employees know. Companies are crammed with experts on various topics whose knowledge goes to waste -- because nobody knows what they know. Now give these workers an internal corporate blog, and encourage them to use it. Let them natter away on every topic that intrigues them. Harvest and index the results. You've mapped your workers' brains. With a few keystrokes, a manager can find out who's been blogging about skiing or bowling or restoring classic cars -- just the thing when you're trying to sell something to an avid collector of '64 Mustangs. The company's hidden experts will cheerfully reveal themselves, and the firm's institutional memory gets an upgrade.
