plugging returns from the dead

Date: January 29, 2004 | 6 Dhu-l-Hijjah 1424 Hijriah
Blog: veiled4allah
Subjects: metablog
I haven't had time to post to Open Source Politics in quite awhile, but I've got one up tonight. Are sex offenders terrorists? looks at yet another way John Ashcroft is using anti-terrorism laws against regular criminal suspects.

Aside: OSP was an experiment, and a very ambitious one. Rather than a traditional group blog, it was meant to be a blog-zine, an online zine in blog format. And it wouldn't just have one section of articles, but would have a whole bunch of them. We got off to a great start. But most of the contributors, including myself, have found it difficult if not impossible to keep up our original publishing schedule because of other obligations. And many of the authors either got bored or decided that OSP wasn't quite what they had been hoping for and moved on. Kevin Hayden, whose idea OSP originally was, left the team and went on to form a new group blog, American Street, which is in traditional group blog format. OSP may not be what it was at the beginning, but there's still some good writing being published there so I hope you'll continue to visit it.
