17 Mostly Useful Links that Will Increase Your Blogging Powers

Imagine having 13 blogging experts at your disposal, ready to answer your questions and help you understand and implement their blogging know-how…

Yesterday, Liz Strauss from Successful Blog held a “Virtual Blog Conference”. It was the first I ever attended and it was pretty amazing. She gathered 13 “speakers” (bloggers). Each Blogger made a short post about a certain aspect of blogging and then hosted the discussion in the comments. The sessions were excellent. I particularly enjoyed (and learned from) the session about creativity.

This is a wonderful example of how blogs can facilitate knowledge sharing.

Here is the list of the speakers and sessions:

  1. Robyn McMaster on Laughter and Mistakes
  2. Sandra Renshaw on Graphics
  3. Mark McGuinness on Creativity
  4. Joe Hauckes on Navigation
  5. Rodney Rumford on Video blogging
  6. Chris Garrett on Blogger Blunders
  7. Ellen Weber on Music and Moods
  8. Wendy Piersall on Blogging Beyond the Blogosphere
  9. Mike Wagner on Branding
  10. Terry Starbucker on What to Look for in a blog
  11. Chris Cree on Business Blogging
  12. Phil Gerbyshak on Being a Relationship Geek
  13. David Armano on the 4 Cs of Blogging

Why something like the “Virtual Blog Conference” will probably not happen in your company

Peter-Anthony Glick from Leveraging Organizational Knowledge wrote an excellent three-part series about how corporate culture and corporate thinking prevents/disturbs knowledge sharing. The series starts here and continues here and here.

    Hi Yoav! Thank you for sharing this most amazing event. We wanted to give folks a taste of what SOBCon 07 would be like and I think we did just that. We’re already planning the next one. I’d love to include you in that!
    Thanks too for the link love. It’s the best.
    Liz

    Hi Liz,

    SOBCon 07 will be great. I have to be in the US from April 18-25, so I don’t think I can manage both that and SOBCon. I will however be delighted to participate in the next “Virtual Conference”. Just say the word and I am there.

    Dear Yoav,

    Thank you for enlarging the conversation we got started at the “virtual conference”.

    It’s great to discover your blog!

    And thanks for the links to Glick’s posts.

    Keep creating,
    Mike
