Last month several months’ of work finally came to fruition and the Rentokil deBugged Blog finally launched.

It’s been an interesting experience getting a blog set up for a large corporation, from educating the team from scratch to getting round technical issues. I can’t take the credit for the final design (that was Leyton Jay, whose design was much better than my prototypes) and the content has been written by various staff members especially Danusia but it does feel a little like my baby.

It’s going well so far, still early days but so far so good; there’s some good content up there and the feedback is positive. I won’t go so far as to match the tongue in cheek claims on Tom from Distilled’s take on the Rentokil deBugged launch (great graph Tom!) but it looks good.

Danusia has written a great article about her experience which contains useful insights both for ordinary bloggers and companies thinking of joining the Blogosphere (if we’re still allowed to call it that these days) which you can find here: 9 lessons I learnt putting together a new blog.
