The prospect of the weblog as an information service in the corporate library

Michael Angeles writes about using a weblog in a corporate library. To quote: “Amazing. After years ago suggesting that our newsletter publications could/should be written more like newspaper or magazine-style columns or weblogs, there is now an interest in looking now at the weblog model to become part of our information services. If you weren’t aware, I work for a corporate library/information services organization. Maybe this is because business literature about RSS is finally reaching business decision makers or because Gartner or Forrester said something about RSS. Could also be because people are noticing that customers inside the firewall are using weblogs to find/share sources of information with their peers. I don’t know. Whatever the reason, RSS and weblogging have surfaced in conversations I’m being asked to lead.” [urlgreyhot]
