Editor believes journalists should blog

John Robinson, editor of the Greensboro News-Record in North Carolina, was one of the first newspaper editors to embrace blogging. He says he did it to increase transparency in his newsroom. He thinks reporters should look at blogs as another method of storytelling. What do you think? Do blogs enhance journalism? Are you reading blogs? Why or why not?

I love blogs. I recently met a guy who was hired as a full time blogger for the Washington post.
My favorites:
George Bullard (Sue's hubby): http://info.detnews.com/redesign/blogs/bullardblog/index.cfm?CFID=18773512&CFTOKEN=15537939
and Dr. Sex (He doesn't update very often, but it's fun to read): http://spartanedge.com/blogs/spartanedge11/
