This is something of an experiment for us.
This blogging community is part of a larger grand experiment that looks
to create value for both consumers and small businesses. We will know
when we're dead if we pulled it off. We're hoping that we can gather a
knowledgable community that will be willing to share their
expertise and time to make something greater than the sum of the parts.
If you're starting a blog here, I wish you all the success in the world.
Back in the old days - 1997? - websites
were fairly simple
"welcome-to-our-website-here's-our-homepage-and-a-vanity-photo-of-our-CEO"
brochures.
Now companies are using the web to attract, acquire, service and
retain customers. They are providing investor information faster and
cheaper. They are recruiting employees and trading data with partners
and suppliers in secure environments. All through the browser - an
environment everybody understands and nobody has to re-learn.
The old techniques of ticking the "we got a website" box, sticking a
page counter up, and refreshing content every few months is over for
every company that hopes to remain competitive.
The more information is pushed and pulled through the browser, the
more complicated it gets to manage. Companies are now fully realising
that understanding visitor behavior does not answer all questions; they
also have to understand and have visibility into what they have built
that the visitor is reacting to.
We hope that we can be a productive part of the next step in the web.
Welcome to Nimble's blogging community. Here you will find information
from local businesses, reviews by consumers, and individual community
alert and information blogs.
This local blogging community consists of two layers. This is the homepage and
administration layer of our blog community. Here is where new members can
register and login to access their individual blog. Through displayed
lists like the "recent updates" list it is easy to keep track of new blog posts
from other members of the community. This is also where Nimble administrators
keep track of the community posts news like this one.
The second layer consists of all the indidividual blogs of the
community members.
This include blogs by local businesses, freelance restaurant reviewers,
community information, churches or school blogs, almost anything! Our
only criteria is that there's a local Utah angle. That's it.
So if you are involved in any sort of local community, we'll host and administer your blog for free! Just agree
Please use the "Sign up now!"-link to create an individual blog to be a part of
this community.
