----Original Message Follows---- From: Steven Butzel <[email protected]> Reply-To: Steven Butzel <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: [ARCHIVES] New Blog For Archivists!! Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2004 18:34:02 -0500 Id like to announce the start of a new blog called "DRIZZLE", available at http://www.myunclesteve.com/drizzle. DRIZZLE features news stories and commentary of interest to archivists, records managers and other professionals. The point of DRIZZLE is not to include a comprehensive listing of *all* news stories of interest, (you can read Peter K's RAIN postings for that,) but rather to highlight a select few that are particularly interesting and likely to provoke online discussion and debate. Comments are accepted for all entries in the blog. As the blog is configured now, I need to approve submitted comments before they are posted online, but I am not wedded to this restriction and may well remove it soon. In time, I am planning to ask a few DRIZZLE commentators and friends to join me as co-authors of the blog. Co-authors would have the ability to post entries to the blog as opposed to just comments. If you are interested in becoming a co-author, start by submitting a few comments to the blog. Later on, send me an email telling me about yourself and why you should be empowered to become a DRIZZLE co-author. Last but not least, I am also interested in hearing from others would like to help with the administration and/or graphic design of the blog. If you are familiar with Movable Types blogging software in particular, it would be great to hear from you! I hope to read your comments online! Please forward this announcement to other lists and friends as you see fit.
