Your views on Notes ID storage New SearchDomino.com poll  From the Editor: by Joyce Chutchian, Site Editor Blog. Now that's something that intrigues me. Web log is just too boring. More and more blogs are popping up on the Web, and Domino blogs are no exception. The question is, are they useful or memory-hogging nightmares for your system? I must admit my opinion on blogs has recently changed. I used to think of them in the way I thought of those holiday letters people send. You know, the notes from people far, far away who write endlessly about themselves and what they've been doing for the last 365 days. The problem is, I often get them from people like co-workers or neighbors that I talk to every day anyway. I used to think of blogs in the same way. I've been known to say: "They're just a way for people to talk about themselves. WHO CARES?" But blogs can serve higher purposes than just babble. Or, at least, that's my current opinion. What's your favorite blog? Do you think your company should allow them? Send me your comments -- I do care, and I want to hear what you think.
