Network world rates Sun bloggers

Sun shines, IBM lets loose, Microsoft disappoints, Apple is a no-show

The good

Corporate bloggers are often at their most interesting when they write about broad issues that face IT executives.

For example, Cisco employees write a high-tech policy blog examining how government decisions affect technology. IBM master inventor Barry Whyte blogs extensively about storage virtualization.

Sun hosts dozens of blogs on Blogs.sun.com, a space the company says "is accessible to any Sun employee to write about anything."

The bad

Massive Microsoft has just five blogs. Apple doesn't have a blog, unless you count one written by students. The list of blogless vendors includes Avaya and Juniper Networks. Juniper says it plans to launch one soon.

The ugly

Out of the 15 blogs we surveyed, the worst by far is maintained by Foundry Networks.
