Heading east ...

Thanks to those of you who have followed my stories over the past few months. I've enjoyed writing in this format, but I recently accepted a job writing for a Web site in Atlanta, so I won't be able to keep up my environmental posts from Oklahoma.

If you're interested in taking over this blog, please let me know. I'd love for someone else to take up environmental reporting here. As you've probably read, both of Oklahoma's major newspapers have laid off chunks of their reporting staffs. That is a shame, because professional reporting adds context and depth to the news. But it's also an opportunity for bloggers and online reporters to fill in some of the gaps. Let me know if you're interested.

I wish everyone here in Oklahoma the best of luck.

Ha. You've accepted a job "writing for a Web site" ... Understatement. :)

Multiple people could be allowed to post - you can set it up in the dashboard. A possible group solution. To smooth the transition you could set up a google news feed of certain terms that deal with enviro issues in Oklahoma.

I'm really sad to see you go. We need folks like you here, keeping their eye on the powers that be and keeping the rest of us informed, but of course, you gotta make a living. Good luck in Hotlanta.

As far as another blogger, what about Micah? Have you kept in touch with him?

Anyone who is interested in taking over might want to know that you are ranked 4/10 by Google. We all start out at 1/10 - for a new blogger this would be a great advantage. It took me several months to get up to 3/10 and I'm currently floating there.

It's very easy to find out any topic on web as compared to books, as I found this post at this web page.
