The Village Voice gives us a guide to the conservative blogosphere. This is like sending Sean Hannity to cover the Communist Party USA annual convention.
The highlights:
Megan McArdle being called a “lipstick libertarian.” I’d jump on that domain name in a heartbeat.
Jonah Goldberg’s “stupid/evil ratio” is 90/10.
Michelle Malkin is “very, very angry.”
What to expect from Ace: [...]
Jay Solo is in deeper financial straights than me. An ad buy or a donation would be nice, but any job leads would be ideal.
P.S. My job hunt continues. I’ve sent out a plenty of resumes but haven’t gotten any responses. If you have any leads send them my way [sean--at--theamericanmind--dot--com].

Lashawn Barber gives webloggers some needed advice when it seems their writing efforts aren’t amounting to the success they hoped:
Takeaway lesson for bloggers: Don’t let blogger envy block your success. Use the energy from that vile emotion to create something of your own. Self-esteem comes from doing something worthwhile, not from hearing affirmations on how [...]
ThinkProgress’ error and correction about a recent Sen. John McCain speech made it onto Fox News.
TP did the right thing by quickly addressing their error. It’s all part of the blogosphere’s ability to publish and correct in an instant.

Milwaukee Brewers manager Ned Yost has a unique way of dealing with weblogs:
I’ve decided that from now on when NASCAR is on the docket, I’m going to pull a “Yost,” or react the same way he does when the subject of blogs are brought up.
See, the manager is not a big fan of blogs, which [...]
In the far right sidebar is a button to rate TAM on Blogged.com. That’s a new weblog directory that looks promising. Click on the link, rate this weblog, and/or leave a review. I’d like to see how my rating stacks with others. Believe me, you won’t hurt my feelings with a low score or bad [...]
Congratulations to Ace of Spades for being named the “Blogger of the Year” at CPAC.
In his speech–yes, Ace gave a speech–he talked about how we didn’t need to tolerate a political class telling us things have to be a certain way. He said we may never see another Reagan again, but we can still stand [...]
WordPress.com announced they’re offering 3 GB of weblog space with their free service. That’s impressive.
When you combine that with their domain mapping for $10/year I’m wondering why I bother with paying about $120/year having DreamHost host TAM?
I’ve had serious problems the last year or so with DH. I’m not sure if I should trust a [...]
Today is the last day to vote in the 2007 Weblog Awards. TAM isn’t dead last which pleases me. But unless I hire a couple Ron Paulbots to rig the voting TAM won’t be winning the Best of the Top 501 – 1000 Blogs category. So, like Sen. Sam Brownback I have to drop out [...]
Brian Fraley and Corey Liebmann yap about weblogs. Fraley gives TAM some love even if he continues the longest-running joke in the Wisconsin blogosphere. To find out what it is you’ll have to watch or listen.

It’s nomination time for the 2007 Weblog Awards. I think TAM’s suited for the “Best Conservative Blog.” So please nominate me…unless you think I stink at this.
Steveegg was nice enough to nominate TAM in the “Best of the Top 501-1000 Blogs” catagory. Thanks, Steve.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel finally realizes local webloggers are a talent pool waiting to be exploited. Lefty Jay Bullock will be posting on education issues. Since education is an issue that crosses just about every politician’s lips politics will seep into his writing. To make sure his readers know where he’s coming from Jay lays [...]
