Awesome list.

Pramit Singh said on September 5, 2008 at 03:10 AM

Useful and instructive.

Paul Fabretti said on September 5, 2008 at 04:44 AM

Debbie

As always, a fantastic resource! I’d love to add my client, Shop Direct Group to the list.

They are a $1.5bn+ online clothing retailer in the UK and have a couple of blogs I have done for them:

Corporate Blog: http://www.homeofbigbrands.com/

Love Label Blog (fashion label): http://lovelabelblog.com

Herve Kabla said on September 5, 2008 at 05:41 AM

Great list, thanks. I hope we’ll come some day to such a long list of corporate blogs in France.

You can already include Yoplait (http://www.bravolapetitefleur.com) and Dassault Systemes (http://share-sports.3ds.com/)

Valorie Luther said on September 5, 2008 at 06:16 AM

Don’t forget about Bigelow Tea: http://www.bigelowteablog.com!

charlie said on September 5, 2008 at 07:06 AM

Thanks for the plug!

Clayton said on September 5, 2008 at 11:36 AM

Debbie - Quicken Loans also has a few blogs and other social media projects going on. Our main blog is http://www.whatsthediff.com.  Peter Kim added our other projects to his post also. 

Thanks - Clayton

Debbie Weil said on September 5, 2008 at 11:43 AM

Thanks Valerie and Clayton. Will add Bigelow Tea and Quicken Loans blogs.

Paul Fabretti said on September 5, 2008 at 11:50 AM

Hey Debbie

Looks like my comment ended up in the akismet spam bin. It’s perfectly safe! Please fish it out...please

Debbie Weil said on September 5, 2008 at 12:14 PM

Paul, all taken care of. Akismet is a little squirrely.

Paul Fabretti said on September 5, 2008 at 12:18 PM

No problem, thank you. Better to be safe than sorry. I have the same 2 url rule on my blog too!

Loving the list BTW!

John Cass said on September 5, 2008 at 02:06 PM

Hi Debbie, Thanks for putting this great list together and using the Fortune 500 wiki as one of your resources. Did you see any new blogs in the Fortune 500? Do I need to update the list because a blog is missing?

Christopher said on September 5, 2008 at 03:15 PM

This is a pretty comprehensive list. I have an addition!

If you’re looking for the leading blog resource for hourly and skilled workers, check out The Employment Guide®’s Job Spot Blog! Lots of podcasts, guest blogs from Joel Cheesman and others and advice to get your job search rolling.

Debbie Weil said on September 5, 2008 at 05:12 PM

Now that I think of it, I believe there were a couple missing from the F500 wiki… as well as one or two on the wiki that are no longer live.

Dan Schawbel said on September 5, 2008 at 05:22 PM

This is an exceptional list and I’m glad EMC is on there.  Companies have certainly come a long way with blogging and Debbie is certainly someone to thank.  This is only the beginning of course and you should be aware that more and more corporate blogs will be popping up until a company has to have one in order to remain competitive.

Interestingly, Starbucks does not offer RSS feeds..

Debbie Weil said on September 6, 2008 at 09:04 PM

Rajesh,

Good point re the blog section of MyStarbucksIdea.com. I assume there’s no RSS cuz it’s a “closed” community, although anyone can register. Here’s the direct link to the “blog” part of the site: http://blogs.starbucks.com/blogs/customer/default.aspx

Don’t know if folks can get there without registering.

John Cass said on September 6, 2008 at 09:37 PM

I’ve added three new blogs to the list of Fortune 500 companies with blogs; Yum! Brands, Molson Coors Brewing, and Chevron. thanks for the tips!

Debbie Weil said on September 8, 2008 at 11:38 AM

Thanks John. I changed KFC to the correct Yum! Brands.

Debbie Weil said on September 9, 2008 at 09:20 AM

I have added Mint http://blog.mint.com/blog/ and Ask.com http://blog.ask.com/ to the list.

Herve Kabla said on September 9, 2008 at 09:34 AM

Chrysler’s blog is missing too, and does not have any RSS feed either…

http://blog.chryslerllc.com/

Debbie Weil said on September 9, 2008 at 10:13 AM

Thanks Herve, for the tip about Chrysler’s blog. I’ve added it.

Thanks also for BlogAngels’ list of the best French corporate blogs: http://blogangels.net/index.php/blogs-a-la-loupe/2008/les-meilleurs-blog-dentreprise-en-france/

I added Michel Edouard-Leclerc to your list! http://www.michel-edouard-leclerc.com/blog/m.e.l/index.php

Debbie Weil said on September 9, 2008 at 06:27 PM

Thanks to Joshua Kahn http://twitter.com/jokahn for the pointer to the BestBuy blog (via Twitter)

Andee Sellman said on September 10, 2008 at 11:14 PM

Thanks Debbie,
Great list.

Rajesh Kumar said on September 14, 2008 at 09:52 AM

It will be very interesting if someone can turn these links into an OPML file.

Ray Pellecchia said on September 25, 2008 at 11:07 AM

Debbie—My compliments on the excellent list.  I agree with you that there’s lots of room for growth.

I’d like to shamelessly nominate NYSE Euronext’s own corporate blog, Exchanges.  NYSE Euronext is an S&P;500 company and the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, among other financial markets, products and services.

The url is: http://exchanges.nyse.com

Thanks and keep up the great work!

jennifer dlugozima said on October 2, 2008 at 02:06 PM

What’s interesting to me is who wasn’t on the list: AIG, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Goldman and Morgan Stanley.

Wonder what they would have written about…

Stock Market said on October 7, 2008 at 09:06 PM

There are some online investment firms that also serve as a news wire. A few of them have current events and market related articles, along with stock quotes. Marketwatch is one, another is:

Stockmarket Quote List
http://www.stockmarketquotelist.com

If a person had an interest in reading news they can get it there, and compare funds at the same time.

Research Health said on October 22, 2008 at 01:37 AM

News sites can provide a public service as well. One news and information site provides articles related to health care. It covers issues that affect a the global community, as well as new developments and research.

http://www.researchhealthcare.com

It is nice when there is organization of information into relevant topics and a way to search the index efficiently.

Hi Debbie, very interesting list, with many surprises

Sarah said on October 29, 2008 at 09:28 AM

Great list, thanks Debbie.

Do you have any views on which are the best examples of corporate blogs, and if so, why?

Thanks

Thanks for the great list of blogs, definitely going to bookmark this page.  I’ve been looking for a list that I can lean back on for news and media.

Robin Grant said on November 7, 2008 at 06:49 AM

Hi Debbie

You’re missing Skype’s blogs (http://share.skype.com/sites/en/) from the list

Kelly Stevens said on November 12, 2008 at 04:08 PM

Debbie you truly go out of your way to help your net community, this is a great list and I also thank Peter Kim she is a asset to us all.

Much Thanks !

American Region said on November 21, 2008 at 07:55 PM

Great List of big name corporate blogs. Another one to consider is:

American Region

It publishes articles from North America organized by region.

Political said on November 21, 2008 at 07:59 PM

A blog network that covers politics in the United States also releases its information free of charge and encourages others to use it freely. Democrats, Republicans and more have their day to day goings made available to the public.

Good list, but it seems you have some of the bigger ones missing. American Region, etc.
