MeMo?

So, the Comical is taking another stab at a blog. Or at least something they call a blog.

It's called MeMo.

The proprietor is the Comical's deputy managing editor/features.

She admits to being "a recent Houston transplant," so I'm not sure she's the best choice for a Houston blog.

I couldn't really say definitively, because I just can't make it through the thing.

I do like this part, though:

This started out as my daily memo to my staff, but it simply grew and got its own peculiar voice. Blame everything else on the folks at the Web site.
I guess the staff lucked out on this deal. Unless she makes them read the blog now.

It's good to know that Comical editors have so much play time on their hands. We wouldn't want anyone over there actually concentrating on the bigger issues at the newspaper.

I like that it's all in lower case. That's so hip and edgy.

Isn't it?!

I mean, I tried not to be just a snide @ss. Not very hard, granted. :) But geez, if you're gonna do a blog, can't it be a little better?

If Dallas's newspaper can sort of figure it out (http://www.dallasnews.com/s...) why not Houston's?

Because it's the Chronicle...

You also have to love the fact that her FAQ (to "frenemy" Colin McEnroe) has a dead link on it. Apparently no one wants to be associated with this dead skunk.
