Why Politicians Need Weblogs

My friend Tim Ireland in London is spearheading an initiative to have politicians start weblogging. Something we should be doing here too.

Here's his site:

It has some good examples.

Here's the most famous one Tom Watson.

He's also taken it a step further by getting people to start up weblogs for their local MP's:

How To Run a 'Proxy' Weblog on Behalf of Your MP

It's a great tutorial on how to get a weblog going.

Do any Massachusetts politicians have weblogs?
