On the July “CIO Staff Meeting” teleconference, produced by BSG Concours, Nick Vitalari and Susan Scrupski discussed with program member participants the subjects of blogging, Wikis, and the movement of these and other new technologies into corporate environments.
Nick Vitalari is an executive vice president and co-founder of BSG Concours. His work focuses on how people solve complex problems, how technology enables extraordinary corporate strategies, and the changing nature of sustainable corporate growth.
Susan Scrupski is the Chief of Applied Research at BSG Alliance. She’s been a researcher, a journalist, and a columnist for a number of years, as well as an active participant in the blogosphere.
The following dialogue was excerpted from their discussion.
Vitalari: What is the blogosphere and how is it affecting companies today? Is the blogosphere only about blogs, or is it something more?
Scrupski: The blogosphere is a tremendous repository of information. It is also, in some ways, a subculture. Within the blogosphere there exists a community of bloggers with all sorts of personalities. But increasingly what we’re finding is that certain bloggers and blog sources are becoming information resources that are indistinguishable from the mainstream media.
Technorati, the recognized authority on what’s happening on the Web, tracks the blogosphere, and according to their latest quarterly report, they are currently tracking over seventy million blogs. They claim that about 120,000 new blogs are created worldwide every day. That’s about one and a half blogs created every second of every day.
