Thanks!

Well, I’m back from North Carolina and the guest bloggers have gone away, so I’d like to say thanks to an excellent team for some excellent work. Hopefully those of you on the other side of the intertubes liked some of what you read and will follow these writers in the future.

    It might be nice to post links so that we can keep following the ones that we liked.

  2. Seth Says:

    I agree with Anonymous.

  3. Lisa Says:

    Will you now give props to Doc Rivers?

  4. Corey Says:

    Indeed, that’s how I started reading MattY in the first place, when he guest blogged for TalkingPointsMemo, specifically the whole social security debate stuff. I don’t even read TPM anymore. What was that 2003?

  5. Just Dropping By Says:

    Darn, now the typo-to-post ratio is going to skyrocket again, isn’t it?

  6. jon Says:

    Thanks for opening things up to a great crew, Matt — and thanks to all for great posts. Hopefully you’ll continue to have diverse guest bloggers from time to time in the future! And yeah, totally agreed with Anonymous — posting some links to help make it easier for us to track them would be real cool.

    next time coordinate your outage with Kevin Drum. With due respect to the aspiring blogger replacements, I must say that both his and your sites have been horrible in the principals’ absences.

  8. ally Says:

    I really enjoyed the guest bloggers, especially the “G Spot” blogger and Ta Nehisi (sp?), and hope you’ll provide links to their sites. (You’re good too! Welcome back.)

  9. JRVJ Says:

    I was particularly impressed by Ta-Neishi…

  10. qjkx Says:

    Yes, links would be appreciated… Matt?

    Your guest bloggers sucked. On the plus side I did get more work done by not wasting time here.

    Glad you made it home safely.

  12. Warren Terra Says:

    I liked to posts written by some of your guest bloggers more than I liked posts written by some others, which I guess indicates that I have opinions. On the other hand, beowolf is just being deliberately unkind.

    But I would suggest that you link to your guestbloggers’ blogs. On that subject, your blogroll is quite small, has curious omissions (it doesn’t link Spencer Ackerman, for example) and out of date (the TAPPED and Ezra Klein links are obsolete, although Ezra forwards his).

    More to the point, your blogroll doesn’t include your guestbloggers, let alone highlight them as past guestbloggers, which would seem appropriate.

  13. abject funk Says:

    Your guest bloggers were all excellent, and each contributed, in my opinion, at least one post that warranted “blog post gem” status.

    Ta Nehisi was particularly on fire, and I would like to follow his work, so hopefully this site will tell us how to keep tabs on him and all the other guests.

  14. Warren Terra Says:

    Since everyone knows that Matthew does not, as a rule, visibly respond to blog comments (although he does insist that he reads them, which I guess we’ll just have to assume is true), I’ll help out here:
    Matt’s post listing his guest bloggers is here, and from it and in the order given there the guest bloggers’ sites are:
    Kay Steiger
    Alyssa Rosenberg had no blog linked
    Kathy G
    Ta-Nehisi Coates
    Isaac Chotiner had no blog linked

  15. Rich Says:

    Ta-Nehisi Coates is a keeper, and duly bookmarked!

  16. Ikram Says:

    Ta-Nehisi Coates was really good — a bit like the old time “Big Media Matt”.
