Clearly blogging isn't dead. It is still a great publishing tool for sharing ideas and opinions. The tone of the Today's programme piece was playful. The BBC itself invests heavily in blogging. With most of its correspondents having blogs because it knows it's a great way to enhance the brand and spread its content across the web.
