Collaborative blogging


'The whole is greater than the sum of its parts'

Collaborative blogging is a type of blog in which posts are contributed by more than one author, although on a common theme.

It requires a great deal of energy and motivation to post regularly. Its imperative to have uniform rate of blog posts across all months as that’s when you attract decent hits on your blog posts. While very few bloggers are able to write regularly, most either give up regular posting or the quality of posts goes down drastically. When you collaborate (& read about synergy) - the blog is not only updated regularly with quality posts but readers too get to read more than one flavor of thoughts / writings. It’s a great practice and something that will also help you in establishing your professional identity better when compared to individual blogging (unless you are already a renowned face in your space)

http://productmantra.net is one such blog where five bloggers authors posts on theme of product development. Sampath, Vivek, Annu, MJ, and Abhay share their experience and thoughts around product management, Agile, & case studies.

Collaborative blogging is receiving greater acknowledgement from the experts and industry. 

Collaborative bloggers are considered better team players, someone who takes people along with, and as professionals who has synergies best. So if you are a blogger or wana be one, try and team up with like minded professionals in your domain. Contributing is another great way of learning.
