Our title is itself a book's and the first sentence, see that after the comma, is in its front flap by journalist Scott Rosenberg. Let's take some more words from it and share here. Blogging brought the Web's native character into focus---convivial, expressive, democratic. Bloggers have become the curators of our collective experience, testing out their ideas in front of a crowd and linking people in ways that broadcasts can't match. Blogs have created a new kind of public sphere--one in which we can think out loud together. The preceding paragraph is all in the book flap, front and back. It is the simplest answer if somebody is asking what a blog is, then and now. Although we see that as the magnanimous purpose of a blog which is really enticing and challenging. It adds choices and rooms for both sources and audiences without the regular prescriptive cadence. What's common is the responsibility. Whether or not we do it via blog, print and online news, and whoever
Any leading staff, if not the most responsible individual, in an organization decides if it follows either policy, favorable inclination of end-users to a certain product or service or a direction from management which is different from the views of the others. Then there is the preference of a vendor, if not the only factor that's been considered.
Every proven policy is vague for every new project.
Such inclination to a product/service, even a best practice, is detrimental.
Such management direction is unhelpful.
On top of it all during the acquisition period, no matter the size of a certain, if not just one of the forms in a bigger, project plan, the responsibility within the acquiring organization must be muzzy. Or the responsible individual lacks the role and know-how about the project's practical application and business value, first for the end-users, and the entire organization's operational requirement. This must have been elucidated before bringing in any vendor.
Whatever the project's purpose, it's been broken from the start. Even if every option above had been used together in the decision making, it would still be a busted project.
With this only approach, employed throughout, everything is now on sensitive to erratic performance, the need to increase resources and staff, planned budget turned to be a stream of requital which extended beyond customer-vendor transaction, including but not limited to cyberattacks.
