Hi Michele - we currently run two blogs - www.narragansett.ie/blog and www.askaboutmarketing.net - I am currently working on a survey of blog users - what they want, like, dislike, etc? I would be happy to share the survey with you - you can use to survey your blog visitors.

Please feel free to contact me rebecca@narragansett.ie

We'll hopefully be launching our brand spanking new blog around that time :)

Thanks for the links. I'll be looking at as many blogs as I can over the next couple of weeks as i try to put together a quality presentation.

Don't know if you got the trackback to this article: http://www.economist.com/business/displayStory.cfm?story_id=5501039

Normally, if the Economist magazine publishes tech related stuff, it's a sure sign that it's going mainstream.

As another example of 'Irish Business Blogs' - I'd count myself - http://www.firstpartners.net/blog.

Couple of reasons why we do it:

1) Shameless self publicity and Google page rank.

2) It's a more 'personal' face than the 'Corporate' website (http://www.firstpartners.net). We've seen so many corporate websites that those marketing blurbs are not as believable as before. In the consulting business, people tend to buy the 'person' rather than the 'company'

3) It's a good way of organising the knowlege within the company - you blog about something you're working on , and it serves as a useful reminder 6 months later. All this knowledge is already in the public domain / on the internet , but the blog puts it into one place.

Another question - how come your presentation is in the Hilton Hotel, while we have to slum it in thr Morgan for the Web 2.0 presentation? :-)

Paul - You'd have to ask Fergal about the venue :)
