I read via my friend David Krug at Telegraphik that bloggers in the political arena are wanting to start their own Blogger’s Union.  Ashley M Heher of Fox News is reporting that:
In a move that might make some people scratch their heads, a loosely formed coalition of left-leaning bloggers are trying to band together to form […]

After watching the story unfold about the blog post that appeared on Digg that was dugg over 15,000 times and appeared on page one of Digg.  The Digg Effect as it has become known is a phrase given when this phenomena occurs.  Many times if a story becomes popular enough it will appear on page […]

No, I’m not talking about a UFC cage match, comparison people.  I found this post from a small, but extremely well written, blog from Arkansas focused on local city government issues from Springdale, Arkansas–springdalevotes.com.  I gather from the article there is a bit of a tempest in a tea cup over blogging and journalism.  This […]

Chris Brogan has written a great blog post today about extending the conversation.  He says that he believes that all of these web 2.0 tools that are available are for helping to extend the conversation.  I have to agree with Chris.  He touches on something that I think is the gist of Shel Israel’s new […]

Not often that I see Calgary mentioned in Yahoo News, especially when the headline refers to blogging.  I just had to click.  I did.  Read.  And just shook my head.  According to Yahoo News/and the Canadian Press, Michael Keren doesn’t think much of blogs and bloggers:

Shel Israel reminded me of a story that occurred last spring involving a blogger, Lance Dutson, and the Maine Office of Tourism.  My partner Tris blogged about this unfortunate event on his own blog and it was also spread throughout the blogosphere.  As Shel reports, the blogger seems to be the last man standing.  I’m […]

On December 27, 2006, it was announced by TechCrunch and Mike Arrington that PayPerPost would be acquiring a portion of the assets of Performancing.com.  Later, PayPerPost published the press release confirming that they had in fact:
