Writing, the Internet, and the Progressive Blogger's Union

I've volunteered myself to attempting to write weekly on various topics in current events over at the Progressive Blogger Union. I've finished my first entry, but it won't be posted until tomorrow morning, to stay in sync with their schedule.

I'm not really sure that this sort of thing actually has any great value from the perspective of trying to push good analysis to the forefront; my experience has been that inviting a lot of people at random to talk or write about something generates a little bit of useful information buried in chaff (and whether or not I'm going to be in the "chaff" category myself remains to be seen, though I intend to skip a week's entry rather than write something abysmally useless). On the other hand, I've found myself a little out of touch with current events from time to time, and this should force me to at least pay attention once in a while.
