Who- Blogs?

ANYONE! 

This is the beauty of it! You don't have to be a News Reporter or a Journalist from a big company. You can be a Soccer Mom or a kid sharing his artwork with friends.

The list is long for who blogs:

• Business
• News Channels
• Political Groups
• Advertisers
• Grandma's
• Social Groups
• Book Clubs
• Schools
• Geneologist

I really could include just about any one and everyone. If you have something to say and you would like to share it, you can have a blog. I am not saying everyone one reads your blog. There are too many blogs for any one to do that. 

Some simple guidelines for Blogging:

1. Take Responsibility not just for your own words, but for the comments you allow on your blog.
2. Label your tolerance level for abusive comments.
3. Consider eliminating comments.
4. Ignore the Trolls.
5. Take the conversation offline, and talk directly, or find an intermediary who can do so. (if you have problems)
6. If you know someone who is behaving badly, tell them so. 
7. DON'T SAY ANYTHING ONLINE THAT YOU WOULD NOT SAY IN PERSON.

When blogs first started it was a problem to keep the comments under control. Now a days if some one wants comments or wants to hassle some one they do it mostly on Face Book. Same goes if some one wants comments or a discussion they will take it to Face Book for a more immediate response.
