Seattle Post-Intelligencer: AP - Elections: Bloggers offer inside view to convention: "BOSTON -- The food at receptions, the wonkish policy details debated over breakfast, the gossip on the convention floor - in an age when the personal is political, blogs and conventions are a natural fit.
Dozens of delegates are writing for Web logs, or 'blogs,' promising the folks back home their take - up close and personal - on the pomp and politics of the Democratic National Convention.
'That's really the goal, to provide some little tidbits of what the after-hour delegate parties or caucus meetings are like, stuff you wouldn't see on TV,' said delegate Greg Rodriguez, 38, of Seattle, who is blogging for the King County Democratic Party. 'People are really starving for that, especially this year.'"
