This is my first blog so the whole idea of blogging is pretty new to me but I know it has been around for quite a while. A lot of my friends have had Live Journals and various other blogs but it has never really been my thing. After doing this though, I do see where the appeal lies. It is a convenient way to communicate to all your friends or to people who happen to stumble upon your blog. Whether you are just blogging about your day or about something important to you like politics blogs are a convenient way to get your voice heard by many people.
I don't see too much application of blogs in the medical field. The only case that I could see blogging being useful in medicine is in research. If a researcher is doing important work and wants to keep the public informed of what is going on, blogging can be a very useful tool.
Here is an article form BusinessWeek.com about how blogs can be used in the businesses. While blogs are mostly thought of as a communication tool for high school kids this article shows that it has an actual application in the real world as well.
