Reading blogs about blogging

Reading blogs about blogging by people who are reading blogs about blogging can be a very dizzying exercise. I'm looking for golden nuggets to share with a client as as work suggestions for augmenting personal and organizational networks. Most of the really good stuff happened live at the "Social Tools for the Enterprise" KM Cluster in London in July, hosted by Stowe Boyd (and already referenced in an earlier post...I was probably at a wedding, as I have three of them this summer, along with a family reunion, and a week at the beach. No wonder I'm tired and repeating myself and dreaming of Belize in February.)

I found another good summary and linked list on Martin Dugage's site (Mopsos). Another good set of notes came from the KM Cluster site, written up by Margaret Goold, but you have to be a KM cluster member to get them. The event was attending by people who blog regularly and also "sell" blogging as part of their business, so they really know their stuff. Digging through all the sites will unearth not just a nugget, but the entire gold mine -- enough for a book. (Oh, that's right. I first heard about the KM cluster summary from Bill Ives, who is writing a new book on blogging.)

I especially liked reading Phil Wolff's learning curve progression of the average blogger:

My first weblog
My first design change
My first category/topic
My first comment
My first referrer
My first recap
My first evangelism
My first reader mail
My first Google ranking
My first hundred posts
My first comment span
My first "blogthday"
My first blogging break

A sweet little roadmap.
