It is designed to help HP employees make the most of blogging’s potential by providing basic guidelines, recommendations, and best practices for participating in the blogosphere in a manner that supports HP corporate culture, commitments, and legal obligations.


Blogging

  • Determine the purpose of your blog. At the very least, it can be used for your personal knowledge base, journal, etc (Why I Blog.)
  • Make some choices:
    • Choose an editor application*. For example, because you can’t always just depend upon a blog’s editor, to have all the features you want/like/need, etc.
    • Choose a blog, from various blog providers**. Try out several, and then choose one that appeals to you (e.g. for ease of managment, appearance, etc.)
    • (optional) Choose a photo hosting provider***, so that you can post pictures there, and then link to them from your blog.
    • (optional) Choose means of earning money****
  • Starting Blogging.
  • Enjoy.

Portals...

Comparison between the Internet and HP Intranet
World-wide,

What are the differences and similarities?

  • Blogs - multi-user, single author, customizable
  • Portals - multi-user, group authored, static
  • Customized Portals - single-user, single author, customizable
  • SharePoint sites - multiuser, group authored, static and customizable
  • Web sites - multi-user, group authored, static
  • Wikis - single-user/multi-user, group authored, customizable
  • Google's Notebook & Docs - single-user/multi-user, single/group authored, customizable

Within HP, What Is Used Today?
  • Web sites, e.g. via WPC (Web Publishing Center)

The Lines are Blurring, Technology is converging...


What's missing at HP?


Customized Portals - by example...

  • This may be controversial, but it is the right answer (in my opinion).
  • In other words, why re-invent the wheel??!!
