		<description>Hype and tripe ... he's a poet and he don't know it :).

I'm also dying to find out the answer to this question.  Short of peeking at the inner finances of big businesses, I'm not sure how to really measure the ROI of blogging.  Actually, even with all the numbers in front of us, I don't think we could easily say how much of an impact blogging has on big companies - only perhaps that it has a measurable positive or negative impact.

I think a winning strategy for a big business is to encourage its employees to blog externally (to get in touch with the public) and to build an internal community via blogs, wikis, etc., so its employees can network better with each other.</description>

		<description>Hmmm, indeed... Blogging seems much more natural for small businesses as it's easier to believe a real person at a tiny to small place may actually listen to consumers and offer valuable insight and/or tips. Larger corporations have layers upon layers, which can bury a blog, unless done well. And the blogosphere changes daily... who's to say where it'll take the bottom line?</description>
