There is a new blog up at manifesttheatre.org. Email me at nicholasgeorg at gmail dot com, and I'll send you an invitation, then you can invite others and post as much as you want. Start a blog of your own in addition, if you like. I put something interesting up that I saw on Linkfilter about bees.
