A Community Blog

Ed Brill mentioned yesterday that there is a new group effort blog over on lndcertral.com. I've signed up and will be monitoring feeds as well. Could prove interesting but we'll see where it is in 3 to 6 months. By the look of the user list, most are already bloggers so I'm be curious to see who is actually adding content to this group blog and how that content shapes up.
