Better read than dread: why your company needs a blog policy
Wired has a story about companies that are filtering the word "blog." Some are worried that employees will leak sensitive information.
From the article: "In a survey of over 300 large businesses conducted in conjunction with Forrester, Proofpoint found 57.2 percent of respondents were concerned with employees exposing sensitive material in blogs."
And not all blogs are blocked – only those that use the word "blog." Instead of blocking sites (and thus possibly making them more desirable), shouldn't the company be upfront with its employees and create and distribute a blogging policy?
