Another new Midland blog

I just discovered another new local blog, the second this week. It's called "Stark Trek" and it's written by one of MLB's co-workers. He's a Christian, a sci-fi fan and has a dog; what more could you ask?

The neighborhood is getting a tad crowded so I've created a new blogroll to house the Midlanders. I'm still waiting for the first Odessa blogger to hit the scene (and Ukrainians don't count...at least not for this).

Thank you for the notice! I've been enjoying the Gazette sporadically for awhile now. Just one question..... MLB?

Eric, the neighborhood is filling up a little ... but I wonder if it is possible to get too much of this particular good thing ... I don't think so.

Been waiting to get my television station's website up and running, then trying to identify and squash the bugs that invariably pop-up with a start-up.

With much of that behind me, I'd like to turn to a project I've been keeping in the back of my mind for the last few months ... an article on West Texas' share of the blogosphere.

I think we have enough local weblogs out there, to make for a good pool from which to draw my sample.

And the variety, too, that can be found in the backgrounds/perspectives of the bloggers, and the more frequent topics of their posts.

I had originally thought of contacting you at "Fireant Gazette," Mr. Patterson at "Sticky Doorknobs" and the dynamic duo at "Streams/Yellow Bug News." But now, maybe I should open that up a little more.

"It's a beautifdul day in the neighborhood" :-)

Jeff, you do realize that Justin Tate sent an email to many of the bloggers you mention asking for their cooperation in a newstory about local bloggers. I don't know how the others responded; I declined to participate.

You might also want to check out Jimmy's regular column in the MRT on Monday morning to see if a blogger's story really makes for interesting reading. I have my doubts. ;-)
