blogging for dummies hw 16

The five pillars of conversational software according to Robert Scoble in Kline and Burstein’s “Blogs: Humanizing the Face of Corporate America” have the potential to be difficult to understand if you are not a blogging aficionado. So to break them down for me and the rest of the newbie’s of the blogging industry I am going to translate these pillars in to laymen’s terms. The first pillar is about how easy it is to post things on to a blog and have it be instantly published for all to see on the web. The second is how to get your blogs discovered by others or for you to discover other blogs by using things such as tags, that allow your site to be accessible that much easier. The third is what you would do to see who is looking at your blogs, see who is interested in what you are saying or see what you have in common with other bloggers. The fourth enables you to go directly to another site and the fifth is how you, on your own terms see everything you want to see and when you want to see it! Blogging isn’t terribly hard once you are passed all the jargon of the industry, it starts with just the simple click of a mouse and you are on your way to becoming a part of the evolutional blogging world!
