"Welcome to South Carolina"

Hello fellow Poynterites --

So about an hour into my flight home, the cabin began to fill with smoke, a flight attendant ran from the back of the plane to the front (never a good sign) and we began a rapid descent into South Carolina. But, the flight attendants kept to the script, with a "Welcome to South Carolina" as we banged onto the ground. And, yes, there was the inevitable passenger who whipped out his videocam and took shots of the firefighters as they boarded the plane.

Anyway, it's snowy in Amherst and I wanted to bring you all up to date on efforts to create student chapters affiliated with the Online News Association. I've been involved with ONA for a few years and it looks like this year we may actually be able to get some traction on making this happen.

But, until the formal chapters happen, I was wondering whether we wanted to create some sort of informal network for our students to talk about online journalism. We could use this blog or we could create another one?

Thoughts?

Hope everyone is well.
