Jiggidy Jig

Published by Waldo Jaquith on September 12, 2005 in Site News. 1 Comment

I’ve returned from a successful wedding to find all kinds of interesting stuff here on cvillenews.com, thanks to the work of guest bloggers Cari and Duane Gran. It’s a real treat to merely read cvillenews.com (as several thousand of you do each day) without having to write anything, doubly so with writing as lengthy and in-depth as Cari and Duane have provided in the past week and a half.

Though having guest bloggers when I’m gone is a cool thing, I think I’d like to start getting other folks involved even when I’m around. Maybe a rotating cast of co-bloggers, maybe build up a team…I’m not sure. But when the site isn’t just me talking, it’s a lot better. More of that, please.
