A new work blog
A new work blog - I have, however, added one promising work blog today - The Angry Receptionist. It's on its own as far as I know and I'm not aware of any other receptionists blogging before. Here are some details: I'm a receptionist at a mid-sized corporate office. When I first started here, I was very nice. It took about a week for everyone to try to take advantage of my good will in every awful way possible. I'm not nice anymore. It may be time to treat your employees or colleagues well or face being written about on the Internet!

The conclusion from the initial report suggests what is required now is: - An understanding of the extent that Web 2.0 represents a new idea. Is it different? - The development of a clear vocabulary and terminology
Steelworker union goes Web 2.0
What does this mean for the 'sisters and brothers'? Live streaming video, daily news, photo slideshows, audio reports, updated blogging and a wealth of USW information right at your fingertips.

A new multimedia section gives our union a place to showcase videos, photos, POWERcasts and other productions that help tell the story of working families and the issues important to us.
