Someone e-mailed me this morning to ask if Dallas had any other blogs like mine. My blog has a particular focus on the evolving relationship between journalism and public relations, which I haven't seen elsewhere. But Dallas does have some nice blogs.

My favorite Dallas blogs are probably those of journalist Virginia Postrel (though I often disagree with her opinions) and D Magazine (though I'm not a fan of its sometimes gratuitous bashing of Belo, a great media company -- and my former employer.)

Speaking of Belo, I applaud Keven Ann Willey for launching a blog by the editorial page team at The Dallas Morning News. She wanted the public to see how the soup's made -- to see the real people and real debate that go into deciding what positions to take on various issues. As she put it:

The entries on the blog represent the individual views of board members, for example, not necessarily the board's collaborative view. But it's those individual views that are so important to shaping the collaborative view that you read on the editorial page of the newspaper each day.

I read Mark Cuban's blog, too. For those of you who don't know, Cuban also backs IceRocket, an upstart search engine based in Dallas that includes a blog search function. It's only a matter of time before Google, Yahoo and MSN offer the same.
