MS Stark plus many others made a fortune out of that revolving door. Fortunately the big boss recognised it and has put a stop to that little caper....and MS never made it on the inside. Hey Barb,

Will Gartner lead the way? No - but will it respond to changes. undoubtedly. all i was really saying James was - there is some good content there and people are reading it. no claims about "blogging with integrity" per se great points Barb. to be honest i was pretty chastened with the amnount of comments on many of the posts. i can’t out of hand criticise something generating a conversation like that…

Ms. Stark, caught for time in the infamous infinitely revolving door, emerged fully once again on the inside of the company. (Many seem trapped half-in/half-out, but that's another story.) During her watch, Gartner analysts have been posting to their company blogs -- which, you must admit, is a huge step forward. No trackbacks, so no bets, James. But, comments and RSS are working. On top of regular posts, that's almost like cheese and dessert. For me, the Long Memory outranks the Long Tail. Gartner company blogs are a wait and see situation. I would be very surprised to see Gartner lead RAS innovation in this area. I believe the surprise sensation, “Gartnerblogs – Rise from the Dead”, is primarily credited to Meredith Stark.

They will more than likely think of blogging as a one way communication channel. I will give $100 to a charity of mutual agreement if Gartner blogs have BOTH trackback and commenting enabled...
