Tom, it's the "LibreOffice Documentation Blog" -- why would they be
looking for items tagged with "The Document Foundation" on this blog,
unless they were looking for a blog post specifically related to TDF
itself? This is a genuine question.
If I were looking for info on TDF, I wouldn't appreciate getting a bunch
of posts about LibO with no info on TDF itself.

Hi :)
Hmmm, i see what you mean but i think that the type of people that would find
the blog most useful are likely to be people that have not heard of OpenOffice,
LibreOffice or TDF ever before, ie well over 95% of office workers in England
and the USA or well over 80% in mainland Europe. It's going to be a few
years
before any of those names are known more widely but people might notice an
article about TDF or LibreOffice and just want to know more.
The blogs look like the sort of thing that increases people's confidence in
giving LO a quick try, especially since it gives links to documentation.
Blogging is a marketing tool.
Regards from
Tom :)
