- Interesting post. I have stumbled and twittered this for my friends. Hope others find it as interesting as I did.
- Blogging had been popular in the world wide web, I love reading different kinds of blogs for I can learn new things.
- Blogs are good social networking tool, I get to share my stories and updates about what's going on my life. It's really nice.
- I had seen that, and it works great. I'm just always hesitant to edit plugins that I don't control, especially with the Wordpress Auto Updater. Inevitably It'd overwrite my changes...
- Blogs are extremely crucial to your web presence and SEO.

The problem that I see surfacing is that there are no follow-up stories to the tailor and the wine-maker. Where is the second wave of success stories built on blogs?

I don't mean YOUR second wave. I mean a second wave in general. There seems to be a dearth of successful business blogs considering how much ink and visibility blogging has received. Makes me wonder ... is it the blogs themselves that helped, or the publicity about the blogs?

To say there's a dearth of successful business blogs is like saying there's a dearth of sucessful newspaper ads. They just are a part of the marketing toolkit now.

I understand what you're saying. I guess my question is related to the value of a blog in the overall marketing toolkit.
We continue to read how powerful blogging is in its ability to build communities and facilitate dialog. But on my blog, when I've asked for examples of blogging ROI, I get a lot of answers about "improved my writing skills" and "helped me learn more."
What I don't get is "enabled me to communicate more effectively with my customers/clients" or "brought prospects to me that increased my business." And I'm not just talking about PR blogs, either.
Not sure if this makes sense. As you can tell, I'm struggling with the concept of how blogs really and truly fit into the kit ... not the hype, not the PR surrounding the blogs, but blogging itself.
