Clear blogging: How people blogging are changing the world and how you can join them

Abstract

Almost overnight, blogging has become a social, political and business force to be reckoned with. Your fellow students, workers and competitors are joining the Blogosphere, making money, influencing elections, getting hired, growing market share and having fun, to the tune of 8,000 new bloggers a day. Clear Blogging, an Apress Technology in Action book, answers in non-technical terms what Blogging has to offer and why and how you should blog. If you've never read a blog, but keep hearing that term on the news, Clear Blogging shows why blogging has shaken up mainstream media, and how you could end up on CNN. If you've just begun reading blogs, it's your travel guide to the Blogosphere. Includes 50 interviews with successful bloggers who influence products, policy makers, potential employers and millions of readers and gain an online reputation - and real profits - from blogging. The main thrust of Clear Blogging is what you have to gain from blogging, and how to go from your first post to being welcomed to the A-list in your world. Copyright © 2007 by Bob Walsh.
