Journo Dennis Howlett has launched a blog aimed at European IT Decision makers, called Bazaarz. So far he's covered issues such as IBM's benchmark manifesto on corporate blogging (which I'm following with keen interest) and its value to the business, and also something on Google and France.
I can't help but notice the similarity to the early days of Silicon Valley Watcher blog. The design looks similar to SVW when it first launched last year, and also there's early mentions of Tibco (covered on Bazaarz but also a sponsor of SVW). Coincidence, or are the two blogs linked? Whatever - they're both good!
Thanks to Morgan McLintic for the link.
Didn't know about SVM's design last year - only picked it up a few weeks ago although Tom's very well-known among the IT tech journo fraternity. I've been following TIBCO for 5+ years...just came off a call with them!

Thanks Dennis. That's cleared that up. Thought maybe SVW was selling templates or something. So is Tibco doing some kind of Blog PR programme then? They seem to be well covered! I did their UK PR a few years back - well Talarian's actually, but then they got bought by Tibco and the usual thing happened :-)

TIBCO is not engaged in a blog PR programme per se (as far as I know) though they're always looking for cool things that can be piggy-backed onto their existing stack.
