Celine,
Thanks for that - a really good and interesting use case for internal

We found that by posting to a blog, we had a searchable archive of this information so that, instead of searching through emails from 2 years ago because you *know* you'd seen a message about fixed field coding for online resources, you can search the blog either using the search function or the tags. It's quite useful as a backup, since previous emails were not archived anywhere centrally and relied on each individual cataloguer storing a copy.
