in Blogging,Fake/Fictional Blogs

From Joho: comment on a fictional blog from Audi. Since Cluetrain is the “bible” for many of the most vocal opponents of character blogs, and any blog form that isn’t by “real people,” I’m pleased that one of the authors seems to have an open mind on the subject. I do disagree with his terminology (faux blog); faux means false, and false or fake for me requires intent to deceive. I would call this blog a fictional blog, as it tells a fictional story using the blog form. And as Dave points out, good or bad is determined by the target audience; it is all relative.

Quick Link: Dave Taylor at the Intuitive Life Business Blog tells us about Your Daily Art, a unique small business blog.

Your take is the same as ours, we’re not trying to make a “fake” or “faux” anything. We’re just storytellers, we happen to have a sponsor. Some prior rants from me about “faux blog” as a label:
