Surely Matt Hindman is at ASU? I just heard a very interesting paper he gave at Oxford about political blogs. Elizabeth On 23 Feb 2006, at 23:58, Greg Wise wrote:

Hi folks, I just got an inquiry from a reporter with the Arizona Republic who is doing a story on political blogging, especially with local politicians starting blogs, and what impact this has or may have on upcoming elections (for example, who is reading these blogs? Are new constituencies entering into the political debate because of these blogs?). I haven't been tracking political blogs and so am not familiar with the current research on this. If anyone is looking into this, feel free to contact the reporter directly: Pat Flannery pat.flannery@arizonarepublic.com

Cheers,

Greg
