'Bottom-up' journalism from the pros

May 13, 2002 • Today's weblog

Bloggers aim to organize for fun and profit: From Proposal: The Weblog Foundation, "The foundation would support weblogs with hosting, software, and honorariums for a wide array of selected webloggers..." Read it at Jeff's Jarvis's WarLog: World War III blog. Oh, boy! Can MacArthur Foundation "genius grants" for bloggers be far behind?

But wait, there's more: "We need to bring business discipline to the world of weblogging so we can show advertisers (aka sponsors or underwriters) how to use weblog to reach influencers and give them the responsiveness they demand."

Whichever quote rings your bell, the proposal seeks ideas and elbow grease.
