Обзор инструментария блоггеров от Elise

Elise Bauer, в одном из своих блогов - elise.com: On The Job опубликовала превосходный обзор блог-инструментов. Данная публикация интересна еще и тем, что продолжает аналогичный обзор полугодичной давности, что дает возможность произвести сравнительный анализ, и отследить все изменения за этот период.

Ну и моя любимая часть таких публикаций - цитаты (т.к. ничего писать не надо ;):
О том, как правильно сказать, что такое блог, чтобы никого не стошнило от заученной фразы про “производную от английского “weblog” и все такое…”, и было понятно :

What is a blog, anyway? It’s just a website. A website that is extremely easy to update with fresh content. A website that has built in capabilities - the ability to comment for example - for interacting with its readers. A website that has a personal voice. From a product perspective, it’s a set of features, features that any company making tools for website building should incorporate if they want to stay in the game. Companies that are in the business of hosting personal websites for people will have to start offering blog capabilities, whether its their own home-grown variety or achieved through a partnership with one of the existing players.

From a service perspective, blog tools are more than just a collection of specialized website building features. Blogs by their nature are very personal. They hold the most cherished thoughts, dreams, and knowledge of those creating them. An established blog represents hundreds, if not thousands of hours of someone’s time - time to think, write, and create. Blog tool companies must begin to see their mission as caring for this, the most precious asset their customers have, and act in accordance with this mission. Customers will demand nothing less from them.
