Dan Bricklin (creator of VisiCalc, the first spreadsheet) has written an interesting article titled, Small Business Blogging. For many small businesses a personal relationship is their main difference from a “faceless” large organization.

And Steve Outing from the Poynter Institute suggests that news organizations might do better by hosting weblogs for small businesses, rather than only pitching them ad banners: Business/Corporate/Advertising Weblogs

Four new small weblog clients this month:

Rebecca Sterner, magazine publishing consultant; a tattoo & body piercing shop; a construction company; a MN legislator. I’ll post links to the latter three as soon as they’re up.

I have a new contract to facilitate two web forums for Len Witt and colleagues at Kennesaw State University who are trying to create a Civic Journalism Professional Organization.
