Forget tech blogs, military bloggers are crazy!
While driving into work today I was listening to NPR (KQED) and Forum had a segment on military bloggers. The audio stream isn’t available yet (the show is still running I think), but they read some excerpts from 365 and a Wakeup and Armor Geddon which were simply amazing. The quality of writing and the stories these guys are simply gripping - makes us tech bloggers look totally weak and whiny (I’ll admit I’m whiny sometimes ;) ).
There is also a Wired article this month about military blogs by John Hockenberry, one of the guests on the show today.
Anyways, I’m subscribed! These blogs are fascinating…

Thanks for the links, Mark. It’s quite interesting to read the military stuff. The heart-felt articles with a ton of on-site experiences are just amazing. Like you said, we (tech guys) are totally hopeless when it comes writing interesting articles.
BTW, I have been following your blog for sometime, and I think you post some good stuff. Keep it up! :-)

Jon Stewart had an excellent interview with John Hockenberry on the Daily Show too.
