IWR articles by me

I recently did a vanity search on the Information world review site and rediscovered articles I had written some time ago, mostly in my "business information" phase. They are all short-ish. In case anyone's interested:
Webber, S. (2001) "Getting what you pay for? Information world review, (168), 16-17. (For what it's worth this is the missing "grid on the facing page" referred to in the article).
Webber, S. (1998) “Lies, damned lies and surveys.” Information world review, (142) 1998, 37.

Webber, S. (1997) “The myth of the one stop shop.” Information world review, (131), 26.
Webber, S. (1997) “Pushing users over the edge.” Information world review, (126), 18.
Webber, S. (1997) “Dominance of English fading?” Information world review, (122), 20.
Webber, S. (1996) “Gaping holes in the net.” Information world review, (119), 20.

Information world review is the information industry magazine for the UK and the home page is at http://www.iwr.co.uk/

Corporate blogging again

To continue the theme of a few days ago - a PowerPoint on corporate blogging, of the "how to" variety from JPB Public Relations: http://www.jbp.co.uk/documents/

Enterprise blogging

Someone whose blog I'm amazed at is that of Daniela Barbarosa, who works with Factiva (now part of Dow Jones) in California. Factiva is a top source for business information (news in particular), something I have to come back up to speed with, as Semester 2 is when I teach Business Information (and lots of other things...). She evidently puts in more than a full days work, and yet she blogs immensely just about every day, including multimedia entries (e.g. an entry which combines web 2.0 and cookery).

Periodically I try to catch up, and today I notice that she did an entry on 28th January about blogs in the corporate sector, with some useful links plus some observations from her work with corporate clients. The entry is at http://danielabarbosa.blogspot.com/2007/01/enterprise-blogging-looking-for-use.html The blog home page is at http://danielabarbosa.blogspot.com/
