Beyond the Blog

We often read blogs, ponder what to blog about, comment on blogs, pass along links from blogs and know who the top bloggers are.

What we don't see is what happens after the blog is published. The "what" engagement is created between blogger and readers, reactions and actions.

This month we have local bloggers focused on this topic. Our panelists will enlighten us with stories that engage - beyond the blog!
