Regulating Blogs
Thanks to the observant Hedgehog Report, those of us who missed the NY Times yesterday know that the Federal Election Commission is considering <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/06/politics/06blog.html">regulating online activities</a> like the writing on the web log you are viewing now.

<blockquote>"Everyone here believes this is one of the most important rule-makings the F.E.C. is going to do this year," Mr. Toner (FEC member) added, "mainly because the Internet got millions of people involved in politics. What we do here is going to have a major consequence of how people are involved."</blockquote>

What do you think? Should blogs be regulated?
