What is a good corporate policy for blogging?

It is very interesting that people lead you, sometimes, to the role that you and they probably don't want in the first place. Let's take the example of corporate policy for blogging. Ideally you would have a basic policy of what you would want people to talk about or not to talk about. However if you do that you know for sure that people will have questions, many questions. Now people also get upset because everyone will have a different interpretation of what should be blog and what should.

So someone may go out and obtain the road domain, and get a discount using a godaddy promo code then set up their own blog. They will want to say whatever they want and talk about work. Now you have the issue that someone has to police that a make sure that they are playing by the rules like everyone else. Of course they will have their own interpretation of what should and shouldn't be done. So now back to my main point that people will lead you to the role that no one really wants. Here is the role, the only role that makes any sense. The role is simply this no employee can blog anything about the company. Now really that role does not make sense, however it does when you think about the alternative being roles that have to be put together have to be enforced and everyone in your company's going to talk about. If you come up with Alyssa roles you waste a lot of time about a subject it really shouldn't matter. Therefore the best corporate policy is simply a no blog policy.
