Defining what makes a blog different (a.k.a. my conversation with a real, live business owner)
Defining what makes a blog different (a.k.a. my conversation with a real, live business owner)
After reading Peter’s posts today “The difference between a web site and a blog” and his subsequent correction, “I goofed,” I feel compelled to riff a bit and share a story about a face-to-face interview I had with a local attorney and business owner on the same subject: “What makes a blog different?”
For some time now I’ve felt that even those positioning themselves as blog consultants/experts are still feeling their way around figuring all this stuff out. How to define it, how to measure it, how to sell it.
[…]
It is hard to define something personal. I mean, everybody know that a good alimentation(can I say that in English? I do not find the good term 
) and exercise make you feel much more better. However, how would you explain it? It is really, really hard. The only way is to experiment it, change your alimentation habits and start doing sport every 3 days, then you will know what i mean.
It is the same for blogging. Blogging is personal, it’s a way to express you and get feedback from other peoples. You can’t fully know what it will bring to you until you start it and that you discover the way you will blog.
I agree and well said!
I think that blogging is akin to a face-to-face conversation, in that you can try to establish goals and intentions and whatnot — but once you “find your voice” and others begin to give you feedback, you adapt and change and grow. But the cool part is, the possibilities are endless. You might not know WHICH way the path will take you till you get there!
I think that’s exciting.

Hello Taughnee
Glad to see that you discover the place where I put all my comments
Yeah, this is the exciting part of human relationships: you never know where you will end: in a gutter or in Hollywood?
Take care,
Salutations,
Fred

Blog vs website, well for the small business user I think blogs are quite powerful with regards to being updateable on the fly, even by sending an email (some blogs like blogger have this ability) or MMS / SMS. It’s based on articles or posts submitted chronologically. Some blog systems are highly editable though, so you can add allot of bells and whistles to it. Yes, I agree with face to face. It’s more personal, but some marketers are taking advantage of the fact. With podcasting coming up as new technology I think it will move from strength to strength.
