Via a Crikey article, a link to a New York Times article: the diaries of George Orwell are being published daily in blog form here.
The entry The New York Times started with seems to me very much in the spirit of blogging:
Aug. 12 began as a hot morning in Aylesford, Kent, England, only to be followed by a powerful thunderstorm in the afternoon. Meanwhile, the blackberries were beginning to redden.Fascinating enough to be able to read George Orwell's diary, but perhaps particularly so given WWII is on the horizon: what did he make of it all as it unfolded before him?
