Blog check!

The Rocky Mountain News' first, tardy foray into blogging was Maximum Editor John Temple's Editor's Blog, which debuted in April, 2005. Now they have at least 18 of the little beasts, not including the "citizen journalism" dealiebob the paper has with the Denver Post, YourHub.com.

They've got every Colorado pro sports team covered, except, for some reason, the Orange Crush, Denver's team in the Arena (indoor) Football League. They've got their main blog RockyTalkLive. Their fillum critic, Robert Denerstein, has his Film Clips blog, and there's a Mile High Tech blog as well (no business blog, apparently).

The Real World Denver blog scored a massive scoop last week, revealing that Tyrie had been busted for urinating on the sidewalk in Lodo. (I gotta start watching that show.) Uber-lib cartoonist Ed Stein uses his blog to comment on his 'toons; there's a "Shop Smart" blog, a "style" blog, a video games blog . . .

And amazingly, all these blogs are active--if by "active" one means "updated in the last two weeks." The single exception? Editor John Temple's blog, which hasn't been updated in two months.

For shame.
