Now I know what happened to Council Notebook blogger Roseann Danese. Apparently Roseann is the new head of web services at the Star. (not sure if this is the correct title). While I miss her blog on City affairs, her efforts so far on the blog section are excellent. Contrary to some people's opinion of blogs as nothing more than a "ultimate exercise in vanity", most major media outlets recognize their potential in driving traffic to an outlets website and ultimately to their advertisers. The internet is where most growth is happening, especially for traditional print mediums such as newspapers and magazines.
I've added the feeds for all the Star's blogs to WE Speak. I'm trying out a feature at Feedburner called Pingshot that will hopefully ping the WE Speak blogroll whenever one of the Star bloggers post. This will automatically move their blog to the top of the WE Speak blogroll.
The Star bloggers are a welcome addition to the blogging community in Essex County. Here's your chance to interact with the reporters and columnists that you read every day.
