…why not blog about the application of Web 2.0 in mining operations?
There is no question – the blogosphere is out there and it continues to grow. But how does blogging and other web 2.0 technologies impact mining. Is it ok to have random individuals doing uncontrolled reporting on the mining industry? How has civil society started to mobilize itself virtually? If a mining company hosted a blog with a local community, what would be the exit strategy if it went awry? Or could collaborative communication technologies be the key to building transparency and trust between mining companies and their stakeholders, thereby contributing to sustainable governance structures?
