miscellaneous news

So we’ve been blogging, and blogging and blogging for 3 years now since we launched the BC/GDC blog. But it occurred to us that we didn’t have any rules, direction, guidelines or zeitgeist for this thing. (and yes, I was using our prez’s favourite word on purpose, do brownie points count for anything for exec volunteers?) Anyways, we’ve finally summed up all of these aspects in an attempt to define the role of the blog within the BC design community. Take a look at our Blog Manifesto and let us know your thoughts, omissions and/or comments!
