Darren Gersh, Nightly Business Report
'"The power of blogging is all around us. Families are using blogs to search for word of tsunami victims. Fact-checking bloggers are claiming credit for breaking the story on Dan Rather and memo-gate. Now corporations are watching and wondering what blogging might mean for them.
The Pew Internet and American life project says eight million Americans have created blogs. And readership of the online diaries has increased 58 percent in the last year. As you`d expect, growth like that is now attracting the attention of corporate America."
NOTE:Many news sites move articles into data bases after a period of time and then offer them for sale, in the process changing the URLs that link to them. Or they require registration. Thus, we provide a link to the front page of the news website and the information necessary to find the story on that site, rather than a direct link to the article.
