I was interviewed Friday by Patrick Thornton, who runs a Web site called Beatblogging.org that's aimed at helping journalists like me who write blogs about our beats. I'm not sure when his post on our interview will go up, but it should be in the next few days. Check back on the site to see (or hear... I think there will be a podcast of our conversation) my thoughts on how InsideEd made me a better reporter. Patrick's 140-character takeaway from our conversation was this, as posted to his Twitter account: "A blog will drastically expand your network of sources and allow you to get more info than ever before."
