Blogging Talked About on KPBS


Dirk Sutro, The Lounge

BLOGGING IN THE LOUNGE
Dirk Sutro hosts KPBS's The Lounge weekdays from 6:30 to 7:30pm at our very own KPBS (FM 89.5). His topics and guests are as eclectic as any on the radio, and yesterday he talked about the relatively new internet pastime of Blogging. I tried to find the online archive to last night's show, but there doesn't seem to be an online archive. In fact, there were a number of broken links and The Lounge schedule hadn't been updated since August (Dirk, need some edtec help?).
Anyway, I only caught half of last nights show. A journalist/techie type named Mitch Wagner who started the blog, 24 Hour Drive-Thru, was a guest. The show brought up questions like how long has blogging been around (a: since the beginning), and why do people do it (a: individual not corporate owned/run and it's fun). It was cool to learn a little more about blogging.
