| August 26, 2007 | | Yahoo! Employee Blog Guidelines | Veteran Yahoo! blogger Jeremy Zawodney and a small team of contributors provide a simple and seemingly effective set of guidelines while keeping the legalese to a minimum. If you blog for your business, this comment cannot be dwelled upon too muc... "Basically, just about anyone can and will read what you publish. So keep that in mind. If you're worried about what your Mom, manager, ex-coworker, or Terry Semel would think, listen to that instinct. And realize that once a cat is out of the bag, you can never get the damned thing back in." -- Jeremy Zawodney Business people generally lack a complete understanding of machinery that drives the blogosphere; RSS empowers your posts to take flight without the ability to ever return. RSS is a cache-forward technology; newsreaders, portals, search engines, ping servers and syndication re-broadcast services make copies of your posts - sometimes just minutes after you click the save button. There is no undo in the blogsophere. | | |
