Neat new blog community

Salon.com has unveiled it's new user-driven content website / online community: Open Salon. (Get it?)

For the past few months I've been participating in the beta test of Open Salon. It has had its issues and problems but has already become a go-to spot for good writing on politics, current events, society, family, art, etc etc. Healthy debates have ensued in a mostly respectful and constructive manner. There's some great stuff there that I will hope to highlight here in the coming days. One of the best things: People write in complete sentences and without rampant abbreviation and text speak.

For now, I'll invite you to check out the Open Salon home page, as well as my own blog under the nom de plume Skeptic Turtle.
