I woke up to quite an experience this morning; over 50+ enthusiastic applicant emails for a new historical blog network in my inbox. I owe it all to Craigslist. I spent the last week and half looking in more specific “historical places” thinking it would return better results, but I was wrong. Once my ad hit the popular local search directory, it was lights out, and we’re well on our way to starting up several beta sites with the help of passionate historian-blogger hybrids. Should be fun to see where this goes.
