Weblog For Collaboration Ware

I'm trying to better understand using WebLog tech for getting work done within an Intranet. I'd love a better sense of how UserLand actually uses it themselves...

before Instant Outlining (I/O)

• used weblog for progress, status, milestones?

• any structure to entries (categories, controlled keyword list)?

• Any other tech?

• used Radio Userland (vs Frontier/Manila)?

  • how run multi logs per person(internal vs public)?

• streamed to Frontier?

• significant use of search?

• interaction: mostly email? Or disussions?

Since I/O

• blog progress in IO?

• move to weblog? When?

• how discuss among 3+ people? Email?

There's been a little public writing about Cisco using an internal Blogger server. (I think the BlogRoots book chapter on business weblogging includes an interview about that.)
