I am trying to establish the effect of blogging on company’s communications with their customers/stakeholders.
I.e. does the fact that it facilitates two-way communication
fundamentally alter the dialogue process?
I am doing the research as part of my dissertation for my course MA

Communications Management. It would help me greatly if you were to answer the short questionnaire below and send it to
r.crutchley@londonmet.ac.uk

Let me know if you require any additional information.

Kind regards, Rachel
