Every Conversation Could Be a Potential Blog

Posted on February 11, 2005

The corporate blogging trend has top executives blogging about everything from exciting product launches to past business success stories. While this makes for great reading there is still a need for secrecy especially if you are discussing your future business strategies with someone who happens to blog -- as nearly everyone now does. Take for example this blog entry on the A VC blog.

"So where does Jason Calcanis fit back into this picture? He has built the Blogging 2.0 version of About.com. Along with Nick Denton, Jason has pioneered the creation of a media model around the Blogging 2.0 platform. And he is doing a great job with it. I am not going to blog any more than that since Jason told me that our lunch was 'off the record'. We laughed about that one. Now that everyone is a journalist, every conversation has to be 'off the record'!"

Indeed. Every conversation these days is a potential blog. But every conversation should not necessarily be blogged.
