Die Seattle Times und ihre Wahl-Blogger starten das Backyard-Blog. Mit "Kommentarfunktion per E-Mail" und ersten "Konflikten":

Welcome to Backyard Blog, our group online journal for this election season. We've asked a broad array of people with deep ties to the region to share their views on politics during the 2004 campaign.

Editor's note: Today is the launch of the Backyard Blog project. We coincide with the opening of the Republican National Convention in New York City. As it happens, more writers from the left side of the political aisle weighed in than the right (does this mean something?) Let the blogging begin.
