A Bold Experiment


I rag on the Commercial Appeal pretty hard, but they deserve. With great power comes great responsiblity, give light and the people will find their own way, neutrality is not a pick and choose philosophy, and all that.

But this time, the Commercial Appeal is taking a big, bold step and they most definitely deserve some applause. They are going to blog the Beale Street Music Festival!

That's one huge undertaking. They will set up a central blog open to any(registered)one who wants to contribute posts, and only minimally edit the contributions (largely just eliminating profanity and libel). This will be one very interesting read.

You can go to Jon Sparks' CA blog to get the details.

Way to GO, CA.
