Hi

I am wondering if anyone has any advice or tidbits they can share about how
they encouraged library staff to use a weblog to communicate rather than
solely relying on email? I have just finished creating a weblog to be used
on our staff intranet and was curious to know how people have reacted to the
introduction of a new forum for staff communication? I know about setting up
notifications, but is it just a matter of time before people start to use
the blog more than email, or has it tended to be considered more of a
hindrance  than a help?


Thank you for any assistance you may give,
