Gathering stuff about blogging

I've started to gather stuff on 'what is blogging, how does it work' in a rather haphazard way. Here's some first links in the hope that it will throw up Comments and Trackbacks from those more knowledgable...
PC magazine provided an explanation of blogging and reviews blog tools, one on Wikis, and Guardian Online ran a special blogging feature also with reviews.
Ross Mayfield offers a Social Software Reader that covers a wide range of articles about software and also social networking.
Dave Pollard helps with Time Savers for bloggers - a list of 14 tips on how to scan more and keep up the output without blogging taking over your life. This includes reading less (choose the best blogs), focussing your interests, working with other bloggers to share the load and links. Most important - don't just react to items elsewhere. Give yourself time to ponder and think creatively. Earlier Dave reported his blogging process.
I reported the Selling Social Software event last year, with added links about use of blogs in nonprofits and corporations.
