The Open Source blog

I have recently been in discussion with a couple of fellow bloggers over an idea I had to make this site run both more efficiently and at a higher level of content. Since there are only twenty-four hours a day — most of which I cannot dedicate to the blog — there is no way that I can possibly read all the news, all the blogs, link to them, and comment on them. It’s impossible.

So what I’m proposing is to make this blog a “moderated open-source,” so that instead of me having to search for what all of the revolution bloggers are saying, they could just come here and do it themselves. Take David McDuff from A Step At A Time, for example. If he posted a translation of an interview in Russian on his blog, he could simply come over here and post it for himself, and then I could approve the posting. Simple, and easy.

To see my regulations for this, check out the rules.

If you have anything else to add, make it known in the comments for this post. Also, be sure to let me know here that you would like access to make these postings. This will be a great way to connect all of the bloggers of unfree countries to a central place for news and commentary, and it will also boost eyeballs to all of us.

What say you all?
