Blogging Guidelines

The following are a few examples of corporate blogging guidelines that are worth reading and understanding:

• IBM’s Blogging Guidelines
• Scobleizer’s Corporate Weblog Manifesto
• Business Week’s Six Tips for Corporate Bloggers
• Charlene Li’s Blogging Policy Examples

Most is common sense but some, especially the last one, talks about blogging ethics. I would go one step further and say that these guidelines should apply to the personal aspects of what you blog about. For those situations where you wish to keep things private, use blogging software that can password protect and secure this kind of content. Even private content should have a level of filtering because even though you control what family and friends can see you can not control what they might do with it (not easily anyway).
