Turns out I was wrong. Liberal Oasis was not the first blogger to interview a presidential candidate. That distinction goes to Jerome Armstrong of myDD.com. He met with Howard Dean in June of 2002. And if you want to see the early (and I mean early) coverage on Howard Dean, you can do no better…

Ernie follows up the thread on editing blog posts with a discussion on semi-sorta-kinda-permalinks at Dave Winer’s site. It comes as no surprise that Dave edits his posts — he admits as much and has been clear it’s his policy to do so as he sees fit. Update (10/3/03, 10:42pm): Dave left a comment indicating…

Writing in Tapped, The American Prospect’s group blog, Garance Franke-Ruta notes: FACT CHECK CLARK, PART II. Blogger Rick Klau has the goods on another example of what is becoming a pattern of easily avoidable inaccurate claims from the Clark camp. Atrios thinks it’s much ado about nothing. And I can’t say I disagree, though I…

Mitch Ratcliffe has a timely post (considering yesterday’s discussion here about the Clark Blog’s editing of their posts) about the different takes on editing in the blogosphere. I’m glad to see Dave link to this discussion, as I think it increases the likelihood it’ll get discussed at BloggerCon tomorrow. (Scratch that: Dave seems to suggest…

From Ernie comes a great little story about having clams with our Attorney General. The quote is at the end of the article. It’s a keeper.

They’re not the only campaign to highlight news that’s not flattering to the Bush administration, but the way the Kerry campaign packages it is outstanding: What would George Bush learn if he read today’s newspaper? I love it. Back story: In an interview with Brit Hume on September 22, President Bush was asked how he…

CalPundit points to a FoxNews story that indicates Senator Graham told at least one colleague he’d be dropping out. This isn’t conclusive, however, as Graham staffers are still insisting he’s in and a fundraiser for tomorrow night is still on (as of this evening). And Blog Graham chief blogger Joe Jones is scheduled to present…

My good friend Greg Siskind (who most recently co-authored a book with me) is back in the saddle with a blog focused on immigration law issues. Greg is the pioneer who started one of the first law firm websites a decade ago. And he’ll tell you that he maintained a weblog before there were weblogs.…

If you’re anywhere near DuPage County this weekend, be sure to stop by David Ham and Anna Wanderer’s house on Saturday for a Fall Barbecue — it promises to be a fun time. David and Anna will be showing off a little animated banner (which will show up here just as soon as they release…

Full post is here (posted to my tech blog, because I think the issues are more appropriate in the blogs and ethics discussion than they are in a Dean forum).
