From the always fertile and creative mind of Jeremy Wright, creator of the must read Ensight blog, springs forth The Bloggist.
So what you say?
A magazine filled with blog posts?
What The Bloggist could be is a transitional step between the traditional media and blogs.
The linking of the mainstream print media, with the more cutting edge blogs, could result in a synergy that pulls blogs completely into the mainstream of media.
One little startup magazine can't possibly do all of that, of course. It does represent an important first step, toward blogs and bloggers receiving the same regard, as the other mainstream media.
For better or for worse.
The definition of media would then consist of print newspapers and magazines, television, radio...and blogs.
By displaying their writing skills and talent, before a wider and often not online audience, bloggers can gain the recognition they so richly deserve.
Whether The Bloggist remains an online magazine, or develops a print version as well, it will be a success no matter how it turns out in the end.
Due to its bold approach to journalism, The Bloggist represents a milestone in the evolution of the media.
