The first day of the Democratic Convention has left bloggers with little to cover. Its a shame that the greatest test of blogs alongside journalism is in covering a non-event (so far).
How brilliant would it be for the Kerry Campaign to grab a blogger or two to join them on the tour after the convention? To pick up (and drop off) a blogger for different legs of the campaign? Give them equal access to the press corp.
Now that would give us something to follow.
On second thought, this thing is getting kind of interesting. Carter slammed Bush when nobody is supposed to go negative. Clinton is pissed off at what Bush did to his decisions. Bloggers are the one new thing for the memory mechanism.
Something wonderful about the simple redesign of Technorati and how the Politics section is helping me listen to different sides. Wonder what happens to the center column items when the convention is over.
