How do you manage a blog?

2006 closed with a series of scandals in the blogosphere: CuongOZ, Be Crys, female giang blogger blogger . The face of such incidents, Vietnamese bloggers entered the year of Dinh Hoi With the big question: Will the blog be managed yearly? Manage to what extent? There have been at least 5 polls in blogs that are considered the most famous and reputable.

Management or not management?

The world of blogging everyone knows a name: Dementor. According to the year-end ranking of many unofficial polls, this is the second most popular blog at the level of popularity and the most popular bloggers. In the last days of the year, Dementor's blog presented a pretty good article about managing blogs as well as creating a forum for bloggers with the theme 'Future for a community?' Bloggers who are commenting are not strangers: Kinhkong, Pi, TIO .

Dementor quotes a comment in the Washington Post on January 11, 2007 that the Internet is now like the wild West of the United States in the 1980s, when everyone armed themselves with a gun and a ready Ready to fire at each other without any rules. The same is true for Vietnamese blogs.

Previously, many bloggers also discussed this and are considered the official 'round table' of the topic ' Should blogs be managed? '. Blogger Pi commented: ' Before bloggers are more aware, there should be a specific sanctions for issues that endanger the nation as well as the young '.

A lot of other bloggers show their attitude by being long: How to manage it. The first reason given is that blog is a private place, a personal diary, if there is nothing more private to manage. If you manage, shake hands with Yahoo! Google ., this is also difficult to do. More remarkable is how to regulate a 'clean', 'dirty' blog?

Important is consciousness

When creating a blog, not the home page like Yahoo !, Google, Myspace . do not think about these things. On Yahoo! 360 blog, the most effective containment tool is Report For Abuse. This utility means that when any blogger detects that a blog is "dirty", the blogger sends a message to Yahoo! notice, and Yahoo! will check and delete if the blog is correct. But the time for Yahoo to delete is not fast. By the time one, two such blogs disappeared, hundreds of other 'dirty' blogs had already grown.

The Ministry of Post and Telematics and the Ministry of Public Security have unified a document for blog management and will be applied in the near future.The reason is that this management cannot rely solely on a governmental agency but must have close coordination between many agencies and unions.

In this regard, Dementor has come up with a solution: There is a 'sheriff' but on the condition that this manager must be the one created by the blogger community. In fact, only one blogger is so reputable, the blogging community can rely on and quickly inform to fix the "black spots" that they discovered. The blogosphere has its own rules that outsiders cannot fully understand.

Although not very confident in the effective management of blogs, blog players all wish that their world would become clean and have more rules.

While waiting for a move by regulators, bloggers still have to protect themselves with consciousness. Many blogs have been 'boycotted' and the list of friends has dropped to zero, when there is a movement to condemn that blog in the community. Just as many bloggers have generalized this issue: You can comfortably walk around in the school yard but when you have a motorcycle, you can get security right away. to restore order.
