I’m in a hotel room in San Antonio, Texas, listening to a streaming audio file offered by National Public Radio from its “Talk of the Nation” broadcast. The topic: employee blogging. Right now, I’m listening to former Google employee Mark Jen, who was fired for blogging (and is currently working at Plaxo on, among other things, development of an employee blogging policy. So far, I haven’t heard much new, but hearing people talk about the issues provides a somewhat different perspective than reading about it. It’s also interesting to hear the points of view of those who called in on the topic.

Also interviewed is an employment specialist and GM’s new media director Michael Wiley. If you’re dealing with the issue, you can add this audio file to your mix.

Thanks to Mark Turok (an IABC colleague from San Diego) for the link.
