What makes a good blog post?
I found five posts from the pros that I think even the most veteran blogger will find useful. Here they are:
From Pro Blogger: 13 Things I’ve Learned about Successful Blogging
Advice: Provide tips and “how to” posts. Write about what interests you. Antcipate growing trends.Blog regularly. Be interactive. This is well worth the read.
Debbie Weill: The Corporate Blogging Book
A slide show that goes through more than just what makes a good blog post. Debbie is a social media consultant who goes into detail about blogging practices and the elements of a good blog post.
How To Be Social And Create Better Content
The crux of this post is how commenting can inspire you to write a post of your own. Sometimes, even, it makes sense just to copy the comment into your own post. Add context and additional background to it and you have a decent post. The blogger gets a good comment and you have a post that addresses real-life issues. Everyone wins.
10 Business Blogging Best Practices
It’s notable that people use social networks in all aspects of their lives. But the social web is still a young movement in most companies. Twittering may be all the rage but a blog is still an excellent way to teach people about the ways of social media. Jeff Cohen outlines some methods to get that blog going and make it last.

| PayPal UK Launch Security Key - Guest Posting from PayPal I am happy to say they are using VeriSign Identity Protection to deliver this, which means that PayPal Customers will be able to use their token at other sites who join the VIP network. PayPal are the first UK members of the network, but there are around 30 other members in different countries around the world so you can expect to see more places where you can use your token in the UK appearing shortly. Facebook scam - Part 2 This just in from the BBC web site, Symantec have identified a virus that steals user names and passwords, nothing new there. But, if I understand this right, it is delivered through a Facebook invitation from someone you don't know and delivers malware which can then steal user names / passwords and also keylog credit card info.

I don't think the vendor community has been crying wolf about the problems that stronger authentication solves, more like highlighting that this problem is here and growing. Well the discussion I have had recently with many different organisations across many different industries are now resulting in more and more consumer projects in this area |
