Product Description

Product Description
An introduction to the phenomenon of Weblogs--online journals and diaries--and the people who keep them. Instantaneous and raw, unedited and uncensored, Weblogs are self-publishing at its best and its worst--occasionally brilliant but often pretentious, sometimes shocking but always fascinating. We've Got Blog is the first book to explore this phenomenon, which has been quickly rising from obscure Webpages to national attention in the Wall Street Journal and USA Today. Weblogs are free, searchable journals of opinions and links updated daily by an individual or a group and they have become some of the hottest Websites. We've Got Blog has pulled together some of the best writing explaining their history, the mavericks who created them, and how they are changing the way we use the Internet.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Guide to Blogging - Past, Present and Future, 1 Aug 2003
By A Customer
The great thing about this book is it's not a "how to" of blogging, it presents a collection of experiences and opinions of long-time Bloggers and is essential reading if you want to get past the hype and into reality of this new cultural phenomenon. With the chapters written in the style of a blog, it’s perhaps not a masterpiece of literature, but a good read nevertheless.

3.0 out of 5 stars A book without a personality, 27 Sep 2003
I had such great hopes for this book. The list of contributing authors reads like a "who's who" of blogging, and I really enjoyed headliner Rebecca Blood's "Weblog Handbook". Alas, I was to be disappointed. This book is not a grand collaborative effort but merely a collection of unrelated essays, interviews and weblog posts. Some of these articles were new, some were familiar, some were intriguing, some were dull or inconsequential. Worst of all, these articles are mostly available on the web for free, And there's not even a linking paragraph of new content between them. One of the distinguishing characteristics of weblogs is that each rings with the individual tone of the author. Jumbling a bunch of such differing styles together made my head spin.

I find it hard to imagine anyone who will get full value out of this book. Most people will find some of the articles informative or inspiring but also find some a waste of time. A book to check out from the library and dip in to, but not one to keep and cherish.
