So if your nonprofit is blogging, or going to blog, (and you should be), I urge you to plunge into Debbie Weil's just-published guide to organizational blogging, The Corporate Blogging Book.

Debbie is my guru on many things online, and a truly original thinker in terms of blogging. Here's what I like about The Corporate Blogging Book:

• Covers all core topics relevant to launching, and maintaining, an organizational blog.

  So this guide, along with Getting Attention's nonprofit-specific blogging tips, is all you need to get blogging.

• Stays accessible, and relevant to, bloggers-to-be, nonprofit leadership, and experienced bloggers alike.

  I don't know how she does it but Debbie writes and organizes content so that it's universally accessible. She starts by answering the top 20 questions about corporate blogging, and digs in from there. The reader can go as deep, or stay as shallow, as she likes.

• Addresses the oh-so-daunting fear of blogging that keeps too many nonprofits away.

  Fear of blogging (takes too much time is the greatest fear) is the barrier to entry I hear from nonprofits time and time again. Debbie confronts fear straight on, acknowledging its frequency and providing clear, practical guidelines on how to avert whatever your nonprofit fears most.

  Her anti-fear strategies include interviewing peer nonprofits that are blogging before you start, and drafting comprehensive organizational blogging guidelines.

• Outlines how blogs can benefit your organization, and how you can measure their impact.

  Lessons Learned from One Entrepreneur on Vioxx
  For the past ten-months, I tried every drug from the popular Vioxx, Celebrex and Aleve, to the long-standing Percocet, Ibruprofen 800, with some other fabulous ones like Fexeril, Ulltram, Naproxyn, and Antevert. (And, this is my short list).I hate drugs and I try very hard to keep them out of my body. For example, for five years I was either pregnant or nursing so I knew the whole “What class is this drug in?” drill.Unfortunately, ther

    Delegation: One of Your Best Management Tools
    Managers should avoid the tendency to constantly delegate to the same one or two capable individuals. This practice only overloads the best personnel while slighting all others.As with delegation in general, there may be occasions in which work must be divided among several individuals for example, highly technical or complex tasks. Should this be the case, the rule is always — delegate the maximum amount of work to the lowest possible level.

    The End of Google's Affiliate Programs?
    When Google launched their referral buttons, Darren over at Problogger.net raised a pretty interesting point. He speculated on whether Google’s link-up with Firefox marked the start of a range of affiliate products for publishers that Google were planning to roll out.Now that the buttons have been around for a while, I have to say that I’d be pretty surprised if Google decided to try out any more.I’m not aware of anyone making any seri
