    ...to Mel from JBB. I'm not sure if he still posts or admins here but that dude was ahead of the curve in terms of blogging and site management. Recently, I was at a sportswriting seminar and I was thinking back to the days of JBB's Writing Team and how Mel kept pushing the idea of blogs and how they worked. At the time, us writers were used to producing full length feature stories so it was a hard transition but he really stressed the importance of the short, easy to read blog posts and building relationships with other bloggers through posting links and blogging about their stories. At the time, it didn't make much sense to any of us but now, it's huge and he definitely knew what he was doing. So if you read this, props to Mel and keep up the great work.
