A Review of Blogging Coverage at the DNC

I found this interesting story regarding the blog coverage of the DNC:

In many respects, the arrival of independent Web journalists at the Democratic National Convention in Boston was largely about hype. One of the "bloggers" had even compared his presence to the introduction of television to politics more than a half-century ago.

But it quickly became clear that bloggers were still trying to figure out their role. Three dozen of them were granted media status alongside an estimated 15,000 traditional journalists.

I can imagine that, if you have never been to the national convention before, it would take awhile to understand what was worth blogging about. I know that when the call comes for the RMA to blog at the RNC in September that the gents will be more than equipped to avoid these "rookie" mistakes.

Funny that the Boston.com article doesn't mention anything about the Republicans that were blogging at the DNC.
