Whilst a lot of people don't like it, a comment that disagrees with what your blog post is about is an excellent way to generate discussion, and to get you thinking outside of your comfort zone. I've learnt a lot from what my readers have said in their blog comments, especially those that offer a difference of opinion. Great post, Shonnie.

I think it says a lot about a person who is willing to be open to different opinions and ideas. Not necessarily an easy place to stand, yet, as you said, it can be very fertile ground. Bengt -- First, thanks for translating your post! I especially appreciate your writing, "Using blog to market your company is all about building trust and being transparent." At least in this culture (US) we're generally not taught to be transparent or authentic. Instead we're taught to put on a show that others will like/approve of. So it's helpful to have reminders that control isn't what's desired anyway. David — Thanks for chiming in.
