Which Fortune 500 businesses are blogging?

Fortune 500 blogs58 (11.6%) of the Fortune 500 are blogging as of this month.

This per the ‘Fortune 500 Business Blogging Wiki‘ put together by Easton Ellsworth and John Cass working with Ross Mayfield of Socialtext.

The wiki provides a directory of Fortune 500 companies that have business blogs, defined as: active public blogs by company employees about the company and/or its products, a sampling of their blogs, and links to Fortune 500 business blog reviews.

Law firms competing for legal work from the Fortune 500 companies who are blogging may want to ask themselves why their law firm isn’t blogging.

    According to your numbers, there is a greater percentage of AMLaw 200 firms blogging than Fortune 500 companies.
    Maybe lawyers are actually ahead of the curve on blogging?

    Was thinking the same thing Doug. AmLaw 200 firms are at 25%. Just find it very hard to believe the legal industry is as innovative as other industries in general. ;)

    Kevin- Exciting measures! Guess we do have some catching up to do! One of the common concerns I hear from Fortune 500 companies is around legal liabilities. Guess this shows the comfort from within the legal profession!
