I don´t think so.
First: a company shold be specific in expectation, topics to communicate and needs on the market and accordingly select the mean. I think for long term awareness blogs are very effective.
Second: get credibility. Depends if you want to build renome for the professionals in the company, or change/build awareness for your product or brand.
Example? In Spring 2008 we in Microsoft Slovakia also considered how to get closer to public with informal communications which may send traditional press releases to the past. There were 2 possibilities:
- create company blog on our platform feeded by our internal profesionals, or
- create external plaftorm to blog for selected external bloggers, specialists in the field.
Based on my experience I believe that company specialist after a year loose the consumer/business partner insight which makes engagement of external contributors particulary important. About this in one of my following posts.
