In early December, there was a great deal of commentary surrounding the formation of the Blog Council, a community of global companies whose primary goal is to promote best practices in corporate blogging.

Founding members include AccuQuote, Cisco Systems, The Coca-Cola Company, Dell, Gemstar-TV Guide, General Motors, Kaiser Permanente, Microsoft, Nokia, SAP and Wells Fargo.

Shel and I talked about it in FIR #299 on December 6.

Paul Dunay at SocialMediaToday has posted a series of audio commentaries from Andy Sernovitz, CEO of GasPedal (which manages the Blog Council) and Sean O’Driscoll, General Manager, Community Support Services at Microsoft, in which they talk about the purpose and goals of the Blog Council.

Helpful in broadening understanding.
