Blog Of The Week: Talking Points Memo


A popular liberal web-based political blog, Talking Points Memo was founded by Josh Marshall in the midst of the 2000 Florida Recount, and has grown ever since. The blog covers several topics, in earlier years covering the Iraq war, later moving onto newer topics like the proposed privatization of Social Security. The site joined the Blogshares Index in January 2005, with a valuation that has been... varied, to say the least, at one point nearing B$200m but lately back down at B$2.5m. The blog is still in good shape and actively traded. You can find out more about the site on Wikipedia.
