5 organizations that shouldn't blog

With all the excitement, growth, and/or hype of blogging as instant publishing, engaging conversations, and viral communication, some organizations, like churches, ministries, and non-profits (as well as individuals) may be persuaded to get on the blogging bandwagon, but it'd be wiser for them to refrain.

MicroExplosion (Bill Seaver) posted this good list of Five Organizations That Should Not Blog:

  • Organizations that don't trust their employees.
  • Organizations that don't want to hear bad news.
  • Organizations that want absolute control over their message and reputation.
  • Organizations that create by committee.
  • Organizations that are slow.

Read the full post to get the entire context of what these organizations are like, and why they shouldn't blog. It's okay not to jump into blogging. There, I've given you permission. :)
