Ed Cone is looking into blogs about faith or post about it regularly.
Here goes some that come immediately to mind:

If you are local to Philly, please feel free to post a comment or trackback here so that we can share Philadelphia blizzard stories today.
Official conference blog, webcast, Jeff Jarvis and David Weinberger are blogging it as it happens.
I think too much focus has been on the nebulous word: “Credibility”. The whole idea of getting journalists to embrace blogging and current blogger pundits to recognize journalistic ethics (journalists are not the enemy!) is the real conversation. “Credibility” – well that should be a by-product. What happens when the mass media starts to really dig in and pay many journalists to blog? Everything I’ve read about The News & Record tells me they have the right idea. If you work at a paper, read this now.
That’s what Cringely says and that’s what I’ve been saying at work. I want one. Bad. Richelle has an iBook. I’ve been jealous for far too long 🙂
A great collection to be found here.
Dan says that its time to wave goodbye to the the idea of journalistic objectivity and move on to embrace new (old) principals that are required in this day and age: thoroughness, accuracy, fairness, and transparency. Couldn’t agree more. I’d love to see pundit bloggers agree on these principals. Boy would I.
Meanwhile Jay Rosen says the whole blogger vs. journalist argument is over. I’ve never really subscribed to the idea that it existed since I’ve always looked at blogging a toolset.
Ed Cone shares the smartest thing I’ve read in a while on the subject (I say that because it agrees with what I just said!): “Blogging is a tool, Journalism is an occupation, and Credibility is a goal” from The Head Lemur.
For pundits/journalists/domain experts – credibility is the goal. For the rest of the world – Shelley’s right – it’s about fun, communication, expression and sharing.
Don’t click the link if you still want to be surprised.
“The biggest regret is that we didn’t stop 9/11. And then in the wake of 9/11, instead of redoubling what is our traditional export of hope and optimism we exported our fear and our anger. And presented a very intense and angry face to the world. I regret that a lot.”
Richard Armitage interview: 1/20/05
While all of you are having fun covering a $40 million dollar waste of taxpayer money, Richard Armitage, admits his true feelings to the public. Of course it happens as he is leaving the Bush Administration. If there is any quote, any link I’d be passing around right now.. it’s this quote and interview.
1. People who buy their coffee at Starbucks.
2. People who buy their coffee at Dunkin Donuts.
I happen to buy at both – and man can I see this real starkly.
Just thought I’d share that.
Details at Boing Boing, which fail to mention that Picasa, beyond photo sharing and editting, has an instant messenger component as well.
Hmmmmmmmm………
