Yesterday I asked readers to send me their posts about corporate blogging as I prepare for a talk Alan Weinkratz and I are giving next week for IABC.

Already, many of you have sent in responses, and I added a few of my favorites too. But if you are inspired to post over the weekend, or on Monday, just send me your link and I will add it to the list.

Also, if there is a classic post you think I have missed (which I probably have), let me know and I will add it in:
