Bye, Bye Beltway Blogroll

January 31, 2008

As many of you already know by now, Thursday's issue of Technology Daily will be the publication's last. While Tech Daily Dose will carry on with the backing of Congress Daily, the Beltway Blogroll is calling it quits.

My editor Danny Glover launched the unique Web product (along with a companion column for NationalJournal.com) in June 2005 with the goal of proving that blogs would quickly gain power in policy circles inside the Beltway. Mission accomplished!

Glover posted a farewell to his readers here but he is by no means leaving the blogosphere. AirCongress, a portal to audio and video of, by and about Congress that he started in 2006, will stay online. He also kicked off a one-year blog project dubbed Taxation With Representation with the purpose highlighting America's tax troubles.

Glover's full-time career move into Internet video is just days away too, so stay tuned. I'm sure he'll let us know what he's up to.
