Blogs can be useful tools for both personal information management and project team collaboration. For individuals, blogs allow one to easily capture and organize ideas, notes, and research in a searchable online format. This makes it simple to retrieve information later. For teams, blogs provide a shared space where members can linearly communicate updates and have discussions. This forces information into a centralized archive that new members can access to quickly get up to speed. Key benefits include automatic version control, attribution of contributions, and the ability to access the blog from anywhere.
