Naked Conversations by Robert Scoble and Shel Israel gives great background information for anyone new to Blogs and their impact on business (and life). The examples and links are powerful examples to anyone considering tipping their toe into the rising waters of blogs. Even if you have a blog, it is important to read this book to help you define a strategy and focus.
From a technicians point of view, I also enjoyed the book. I enjoy any book that makes me think. This book made me think of other ways blogs would be valuable to the business and IT “inherit friction.” Because of this book, I’m testing my theory. I love books that spark ideas!
The book also mentions some excellent examples and refers often to Purple Cow (Seth Godin…a personal favorite author of mine). This book was written before Meatball Sundae which is my favorite Godin book at the point in time.
A book for “how to” start your own blog (and all the other tweaks to get into search engines), I prefer the book Blogging for Business by Shel Holtz and Ted Demopoulos. This book I would keep on the bookshelf as a reference book to blogging.
Helping all size businesses find growth opportunities and demolish internal roadblocks to success.
