The divide between print and electron

I had the opportunity to get my paws on a a recent issue of a print magazine called Truckers News. In the issue was an article on blogging by truckers. I noted some of the trucker blogs that they wrote about, and tonight I got around to finally checking them out. The highlighted blog in the article was Tom's Take. I headed there and was amused to find that said Tom had stopped blogging at that address...over a year ago. He podcasts now, but that blog has been on mothballs since January 28th, 2005.

Here's a suggestion to editors. If you are looking to do an article on blogging as the latest and greatest thing, don't send your readers to a dead blog that forwards readers to the bloggers new endeavors.
