Huckleberries Online

Pearl Harbor Day Wild Card/Thursday — 12/7/06

I've finished a long day of meetings, HBOers. As I mentioned in the comments section, this blog was held up again and again at the editors retreat today as a model of how to do "citizen journalism." For those keeping score at home, the idea for Huckleberries Online (originally No Holds Barred, then Hot Potatoes) emerged from the yearly meeting three years ago. I was pretty jazzed about all the discussion today about our evolving online presence. It's all-systems go for 2007. As far as this blog goes, we'll be able to do even more things of significance here because I'll be free after the first of the year to put more time and thought into it. We'll discuss this more later. Meanwhile, I have to head home. So, I'll leave you with the Wild Card and all the new posts below ...
