EMC enters the Blogosphere, Welcome!

Posted on September 20th, 2006 in: Community Marketing, Data Storage, Social Media

Welcome Mark from EMC to the blogosphere, as you may know, Hitachi Data Systems and EMC are both in the Data Storage industry and this will make for some unique conversations. In an effort to bring community to the whole Data Storage industry, I’ve added Mark to the Data Storage Wiki, this page shows all the bloggers in the industry, and is intended as a resource for storage practioners.

I’ve been wondering for a while when EMC would join us, anyways David Berlind from ZDNet has some additional thoughts, see Techmeme for more developments.

    This will be interesting to see what they do with it…legal is difficult to work with at times.

    Of course nothing was really mentioned internally about the new blog so thank you for picking it up!!

    No problem, this will be interesting. Are you involved in the blogging project?

    If so, I suspect you’re a valuable asset to EMC as a communcations consultant.

    Oh, and Part 2. Any chance comments will be enabled?

    I’m not involved in the project, but I agree they could use comments amongst a few other things :)

    Even if comments are NOT enabled, it’s still a dialogue as you’ve initiated the convo. People will talk to you, about you, and around you.

    Josh, many HDS comments are answered.

    For some interesting reading – see the Harvard Business Review article of about 3 years ago. It’s a case study about blogging. EMC VP of HR is one of those asked to comment and she was the only one to blast the blogger.

    It’ll cost you to download it – but the EMC commentary is worth it. It makes sense why it’s taken so long for EMC to get on board when the EMC VP of HR is so harsh.

    Yeah I already read that one, it’s a bit dated. But could hold the truths why.
