I'm writing a Works for Me column on the different types of blogs that small businesses can use. It's scary territory, because so many vociferous bloggers have very strong opinions about what is, and isn't, truly a blog. Still, I've come up with a taxonomy that I'll be exploring in slightly more depth in next week's column:
Blog types for small business:
- The diary blog
- The project blog
- The grok
- The group grope
- Podcasts
- Wikis
I know full well the last two aren't really blog types at all, but they are emerging forms of Internet media and I think they belong in the list.
