Is blogging remediating
academic and business communications? When I looked up the definition of
remediation I found this definition (I think I laughed out loud), Remediating is defined
as giving a treatment or remedy. An example of remediating is handing someone ibuprofen for
their headache. And this is how I think of blogging – a band aid
solution to communication. In this article, the author goes on to research how
using a blog as a customer service tool to address customer issues. An interesting
concept, but I have a hard time to see how a blog would satisfy this need, so I
read on.
Fascinating
– blogs for business, a content management system. The article states that there
is a trend for businesses to use blogs for research and development. I really
don’t see how a blog would ever work at my place of employment, anyone out
there with me?
