I'm suprised that people think it's OK to blog at work, I love blogging and spend several hours a day online, but in my own time.<BR/>An employer is paying you to work for them, not blog and surf the net. plus that they can ( and do) easily check what sites you've been on while at work.louisehttp://eliminate-my-debt.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-25293500399398628962008-07-28T17:11:00.000-04:002008-07-28T17:11:00.000-04:00ME - Yep, lunch time is blog time for me most days. I need to make an effort to get away from my desk to get excercise.<BR/><BR/>Curt - Blogging for work is fine, but then there is no payoff. When you blog for yourself you are aiming to create an alternative revenue stream. Seeing the ad revenue (which is rather small in real terms) coming in, is as addictive as checking stats. However I agree, more companies should use blogs - though they need to be careful of legal ramifications. <BR/><BR/>Grey - I agree with you 100%. I am probably where you were a while ago and I need to be more disciplined in my blogging activities. However when work is slow, blogging takes over.Andyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14309605333128481208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-41598014820414640402008-07-28T10:46:00.000-04:002008-07-28T10:46:00.000-04:00This is difficult. I make it a point to do any research/writing for my blog at home, however, I do find myself looking at stats or checking for comments at work. I had a huge problem a few years ago with letting the internet suck away my work time - it's something I'm definitely more conscious of now, though.Greyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15709515601652771806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-12949296767928851812008-07-27T23:44:00.000-04:002008-07-27T23:44:00.000-04:00I don't think it's possible to stop people from blogging at work, just as companies were not able to stop people from using email for personal use. People will find a way. <BR/><BR/>What companies should do is use this trend to their advantage and setup their own blogs and allow employees to blog about their company and their products. That way, companies can channel the blogging energy of their employees into building relationship with customer and increasing sales.Curthttp://www.pennyjobs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-66991015077881599212008-07-26T14:45:00.000-04:002008-07-26T14:45:00.000-04:00I blog about 2-3 hours/day. It's not a huge chunk of time for me in the overall picture, but if I were confined to an office it would be hard not to be able to check up on my blog for the whole day. I'd probably end up at my blog over lunch, for sure.MoneyEnergyhttp://www.getmoneyenergy.comnoreply@blogger.com
