For several years we&amp;rsquo;ve watched users and colleagues work together to have rich conversations while useful knowledge gets exchanged.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As we all move together into the future, there is a focus within Bentley Communities that we would like everyone to be aware of, be educated in, and participate. This initiative is simple: Communities Blogging.&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-34-34-61/4452.thumbnail2.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-34-34-61/4452.thumbnail2.png" style="float:right;" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s something so simple, yet we have yet to master this on the Communities platform. And with this article, we plan on making today the beginning of a community platform that encourages both users and colleagues alike to share their knowledge &amp;amp; stories throu&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why blog?&lt;/strong&gt; Well, it&amp;rsquo;s a way to help our users in a unique fashion that is not selling them anything. It is a way to educate users in a personal manner. For our colleagues who will be blogging, we blog in order to increase product usage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So, now what?&lt;/strong&gt; Below this article is a quick &amp;ldquo;Blogging 101&amp;rdquo; document that outlines the best tips &amp;amp; tricks for blogging on Communities. As we move into the future, we will be coordinating with working groups &amp;amp; their leaders to have a complete Bentley Systems buy-in for this blogging initiative, so stay tuned.&lt;/p&gt;
