The Online Journalism Review writes:

"Online writers can communicate with their readers in many more forms than the traditional news article. Blogs, wikis and discussion boards dissolve the barrier between writer and reader, creating a more informal and interactive writing environment. Take advantage of this opportunity and distinguish yourself by writing in a clean, active, conversational style that will make your readers feel as comfortable reading your words as they feel when talking with a close friend."

The OJR article defines blogs, wikis, and discussion boards, offers advice on using them effectively, and provides general online writing guidance.
