[…] Calling all Canadian Corporate Bloggers Posted January 15, 2007 Dave Forde - who blogs at Profectio (Latin for the source) and Da Forde - checked in with Elastic Path today about a a research survey he is brewing up about Canadian Corporate bloggers. Since Get Elastic falls into the corporate blogger category, I took the 5 minutes to fill out the survey and, since surveys are better with more folks, I encourage you to do the same. Also be sure to chime in your offering on this (in progress) list of Canadian bloggers. […]

Thanks for chiming in for Elastic Path Mike. I fired up the blog and podcast project last April i joined EP (a ecommerce software vendor). After originally hosting on the free Wordpress.com, we recently moved to WPMU in-house.

I’ve recently written a white paper about the benefits of blogging for retailers. During my research, I was surprised not only at the lack of high-profile (and non-techie) Canadian companies blogging, but also the lack of high quality retailer blogs (not blogs about retailing but rather retailers blogging).

The white paper will be coming out later this week (Jan. 18th or so) along with a series of blog posts with annotations, notes and links. Stop by to check it out.

Which Canadian companies are blogging?…

Lots of Canadian companies have started adding blogs to their marketing initiatives, but it seems that thereâ€™s a lot less doing it then Iâ€™d thought by now. Hereâ€™s the ones that I can think of off the top of my head….

Thanks Mark - that is exactly what I hoping to accomplish, combined with the survey results we will all have concrete data that can help everyone.

Dave,
Excellent exercise. Maybe it will encourage more Canadian companies to launch blogs!

cheers, Mark
