Benefits• Free, easy to use, and easier to write a couple paragraphs than an entire document
• Allows readers to talk back to you (and each other)
• RSS allows readers to subscribe to the blog and receive posts in their email, feed reader, or iGoogle page
• RSS also allows you to feed the blog posts to your web site, another organization’s web site, a Twitter account, or other online presence
Disadvantages• There is a cost if you do not want your blog branded by the provider
• Maintaining the blog consistently is critical yet difficult to sustain
• Keeping the comments open leads to a freer exchange of ideas but moderation of comments is generally necessary to prevent spam and unpleasantries
media sharing
websites that allow people upload videos, photos, slides, and other content, as well as comment and share with others
http://wikipedia.com/
Benefits• Easy to upload and share pictures, videos, and slides over the web
• Can control who has access to your media files
• Most sites make it easy to embed your media in any website, social networking profile, or blog
Disadvantages• Privacy concerns if your media is completely public
• Users may need to create an account to view media if it isn't public
• Most sites allow only minimal editing (may need to purchase extra software for sophisticated editing)
social networking
websites that provide a virtual community in which people with a shared interest may communicate.
http://en.wiktionary.org/
46 % of online adults 18 and over use a social network site
Benefits• Allows you to be where your users are already spending their time online
• Information can be spread virally through your members/friends/fans
• Inclusive: discussion boards, video, photos, profiles, links, calendar…
Disadvantages• Privacy concerns for both you and your members/friends/fans
• More difficult to get a conversation started than you might imagine
• Just because you build it, doesn’t mean they will come.
