New Media: More on Blogs
Professor Daniel Drezner wrote a post on blogging, alerting me to the fact that Andrew Sullivan's blog will soon be moving to Time's website. I'm not clear where the blog will be. I usually don't look at Time's website, but I must say that the frontpage is way too cluttered for my taste.
Drezner also pointed me to this column by David Carr in the NYT. The crass nature of Gawker and its sister publications is why I rarely read them. I love snarky commentary and really should find the time to read more of it, but their filtering leaves a helluva lot to be desired.
I've been trying to determine if my lack of posting is because I'm reading less articles related to the topics of this blog or because my time is focused elsewhere. I think its a combination. I'm trying to do a lot of volunteer work, building a national campaign for WILPF, "Women Challenge US Policy: Building Peace on Justice in the Middle East," representing the campaign on the national board, dealing with the wackiness of my personal life, and applying for jobs in any major coastal city. (NYC is the focal point of my search, but I'd happily take a good job in LA, DC, Philly, Boston, or San Francisco.) Yet, I really enjoy writing these fluffier entries (fluffier than my other blog), so I'll try go back to daily posts.
