"Blog" = "Web - log".
It's a specialized sort of program that allows somebody to create a "daily journal" online. Most are purely a broadcast with no feedback except EMail; I picked a system that allows a detailed comment discussion on each item I post. Others, like the system Clayton Cramer uses, don't allow that.

This isn't a critique of Clayton - he's a historian and computer programmer, he isn't paid by his audience, and instant feedback isn't critical.
Basically, my blog'll be a place to go to get a daily feed on what goes on around here - "here" being the capitol. And if I mention some developing situation, if one of y'all has a clue on how to help, cool, sing out - you can post comments on any item. (So far there's also been a post by a grabber but that's OK, I can handle those politely enough.)
There's already three pro-gun lobbyists from three different orgs functioning up here. They're good guys, 'cept I disagreed with Ed Worley on one issue recently. But that's fairly minor - esp. playing "defense" against bad bills, Ed's the best there is.
The thing is, these three aren't very "approachable" by the public. Well, Sam Parades is pretty good, he at least publishes an EMail addy that gets to him via the Gun Owners of California site. Not surprising, as GOA/GOC is an "internet era org" and Larry Pratt's use of EMail ranges from good to masterful.
But detailed, TWO way communication to the central lobby, in near-realtime (or at least daily) isn't that common.
I think changing that is worth trying.
