When we launched Publius 4.0 a month ago we promised that this would be more than aesthetics, it would be a platform for the evolution of this site. We’ve been working out the kinks, we’ve added a new author (Aaron Landry, our Senate correspondent) and now we’re announcing the launch of a new open community forum: MNpublius Diaries.
Starting right now, anyone has the ability to launch an online conversation about anything! We, of course, won’t allow spam or lies, but liberal, conservative, mundane, or surreal, it may find a home on MNpublius Diaries. Just as we’ve refused to censor comments, we will not censor content on the basis of our own opinions, but instead embrace a truly open forum for a discussion of Minnesota politics. Now, we also may promote some especially intelligent diaries to the frontpage, but that will be a thoroughly subjective decision (hey, we’re opening up the diary page, but we still reign on the frontpage!).
So, get at it! If you already have an account here you’re 90% of the way there, just click on the green button at the top of the right sidebar to write a diary (you’ll have to login again the first time, we apologize for the small bug) and you’re ready to go. Otherwise, just register an account and start writing! If you need any instructions click here to find out more. Otherwise, start writing, or start reading!
