5.0 out of 5 stars Beyond Scams, Slams, Sham and Spam with Blogs, 22 May 2005
By Professor Donald Mitchell "Jesus Makes Me a P... (Boston) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: Blog: Understand the New Information Revolution and How it is Redefining the Media, the Culture, and Business (Hardcover)
The Internet was once an orderly place where authorities exchanged views with authorities, and you could save time and money by accessing the top people directly.

Then, the Internet took off and was soon filled with scams, slams, sham and spam . . . and even less desirable material.

Blogs create the potential to regain the best of the Internet's potential. Hugh Hewitt provides a great service for those who are new to blogs and blogging by describing the positive role that blogs can play in balancing the Main Stream Media. He also warns those who are blogless what risks they are running and how to protect themselves.

This is a beginner's book, but even with millions of blogs over 98% of people on the Internet don't have one yet.

The book is a quick and interesting read, and will send you to the resources you need to find out what you want to know . . . whether it's the inside scoop on the latest news controversy, or just how to find readers for your new blog.

Usually the people who write books like this about new media don't have much experience. Hugh Hewitt brings the perspective of being a veteran talk show host, a columnist and one of the world's hottest bloggers. That's a great vantage point for a book on the future of blogging.

Unless you've been blogging for two years and read blogs daily, you will find this book to be a revelation.

1.0 out of 5 stars A right-wing rant; no useful advice, 14 Aug 2007
By P. S. Braterman "Chemistry Professor" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The author is a right-wing American radio commentator, whose blog is eagerly followed by the like-minded. His situation is untypical, as is his perspective (in an earlier book, he predicted that the 2006 US elections would see the consolidation of a permanent Republican majority). There is a lot of chest-beating, but the cultural analysis is superficial and narcissistic, and there is no practical advice on how to start or develop your own blog.

Whatever your individual perspective, you will learn much more about blogging from "The Weblog Handbook", by Rebecca Blood.
