Blog makes news

The Capital ran a recent story about this blog being a first for a county politician. While the medium may be new, the practice of keeping consituents informed has been around a long time. Councilwoman Cathy Vitale has written a monthly column for the Severna Park Voice newspaper. Several local pols have also contributed pieces to neighborhood newsletters.

The blog may be newsworthy today, but in just a few years' time it will probably be amusing to think back on the time that a blog was something special.
