Hey Geoff, I noticed your Tweet, “Wells Fargo has significantly reduced its blog offering http://blog.wellsfargo.com/ about 4 hours ago from web Icon_star_empty” Just curious, why you think that? As far as I know, we’re going strong, but would love to hear your perspective.
That’s because when I last researched your offering in the 4th quarter of 2007, you had six or seven blogs, not three. That would be a reduction.
Does the reduction in the number of blogs mean the actual blogging activity was reduced or just consolidated?
We’ve only had 4 blogs, so not sure where the seven came from: Guided by History, The Student LoanDown, Stagecoach Island Community and CEO. In any case, hope you enjoy them.
Best,
-Ed
