I think the other thing companies looking at blogs need to consider is to retain a consultant on an ongoing basis to reinforce blog activity. Even if the client I mentioned above had a blog, they would have missed the opportunity to engage the threads of discussion that are happening. Good point Drew.

Companies rarely have someone devoted to the blog so they just leave it up to the office manager that already has to many things to do. There is nothing sadder than a blog that only has one or two posts that are 6 months old. I have seen this time and time again and now I have gotten to the point where if they are interested in a blog, I make sure they have someone devoted to it. If they have a deserted blog I believe it can tarnish the reputation of the business more so than if they didn't have one at all.
