5 thoughts on blogging

5 thoughts, on blogging…

1. Blog like no one is reading… (with due apologies to the original Irish

proverb)

2. Medium may come and go (no pun intended).

But need for self expression remains.

3. Blogging is so much more than writing, thanks to rich multi-media options.

Hint: study what GE does across platforms.

4. Brands & businesses increasingly rely on non-advertising content.

Hint: opportunity for content creators.
