"Something About Blogs...
,,,makes a lot of respectable journalists hyperventilate."
That's the lead of my new Forbes column, which tries to explain blogging in terms professional journalists (and, of course, Forbes readers) can understand. Bizarrely, the online version of the story does not include the "blog sampler," with links, at the end of the column. I deliberately selected blogs that not only might appeal to a business audience but would demonstrate that blogging is not all about politics. [Note: The link above is a new one that should not require registration.--vp] Here it is:
A Blog Sampler
Marginal Revolution (economics):
Daniel Drezner (international relations and trade)
Two Blowhards (arts and culture)
Grant McCracken (anthropology meets economics)
Metacool (design and marketing)
Manolo's Shoe Blog (shoes, fashion, humor)
The Volokh Conspiracy (law)
Thanks to Eugene Volokh for comparing blogs to books.
