Next week kicks off the Carnival of Journalism with several of the better-known journalism bloggers from around the world (and me), and I encourage you all to follow along and participate.

The Carnival of Journalism is a blog carnival:

A blog carnival is a type of blog event. It is similar to a magazine, in that it is dedicated to a particular topic, and is published on a regular schedule, often weekly or monthly. Each edition of a blog carnival is in the form of a blog article that contains permalinks links to other blog articles on the particular topic. — from Wikipedia.

I encourage you to read the rest of what Wikipedia has to say about blog carnivals. My blog post will be dropping on the 13th, and it deals directly with the state of journalism as it is related to the Web.

On the work front, I am working on a new special feature that will make Army-Navy look tiny. But that won’t be hitting until 2008. Hint: it’ll be my first database-driven project for Stripes.

Happy Holidays!
