That's a great piece, ~C4Chaos. I like how it relates to businesses. I was at a college library meeting this spring in which we discussed things like creating a profile for the library on MySpace or other “teen” infused blogging sites in order to blog about our services in the hopes that new college students would see them. We're looking for ways to show college students scholarly resources that our colleges subscribe to that you can't get (free) on the public web. There is an article in a recent trade journal about a library that has been very successful blogging on MySpace and Facebook. The students actually smile and greet the librarians when they walk in the door. Duh, huh?
