Who's in Charge, here?

Linda Rosencrance discussed Corporate weblogging and the impending offenses associated with defamation and revealing trade secrets. I think that she raises valid points, however, I found myself asking, “Who is in Charge, here”? I think that like many other online correspondence, a higher authority will become necessary. The next weblog that we were asked to review followed in suit with expressing the need for guidelines within corporations. These kinds of issues that are being raised lead me to question the validity and necessity in blogs, at least in the corporate world. I have tried to pitch the idea of a corporate blog for my husbands company and I really do not see the necessity. I find it a less secure form of a general website.
