When we started the site, I don't think we even realized how integral and important blogs would be to the function of the site. In fact, the tight connection between blogs and networking on Adholes led us to coin the phrase "Blogworking" to describe it.

At the time, we left the blog categories on the default "news" "information" and "personal interest." Obviously we had no idea back then of just how diverse a range of topics our Adholes would talk about.

At last Tuesday's Adholes Advisory Board Meeting, we identified the relevance and categorization of blogs as one of the site's highest priority for attracting and maintaining membership.

With that said, we're asking intersted users to suggest topics that would best reflect how blogs are used on the site, and perhaps areas where we should be stronger.

We also encourage you to go out and find people who want exposure in the industry in specific areas and give your smart friends on here a nudge to be more than lurkers and participate. It's content--content which sometimes gets coopted by mainstream trade press that makes this site useful to everyone and as an Adhole, everyone has a duty to make it better if we want to make this industry better!

Here's a start on suggested categories:
