KEXP Blog Makes Seattlest Redundant

Here a blog, there a blog, everywhere a music blog. KEXP finally throws its keyboard in the ring after spending the past two years with the most potentially awesome music blog in existence hanging out in their back pocket. Well, it's finally on the table at http://blog.kexp.org. They've got informed DJs with just the right amount of approachability and candor, and we have no idea why they've waited so long to chain them to a keyboard. To be fair, KEXP kinda skipped the whole blog thing and went straight to podcasts, which they did very well. What finally convinced them that podcasts are a flop and they need to come back and pick up on the relatively old school blog wave? If you're looking for answers in their blog announcements, you're not gonna find em.

For a taste of what's to come, check out John Richards's first post in which he recounts a friend's wedding, congratulates a contest winner, writes a banana bread recipe, hypes a podcast, and uses the word "blog" 15 times. Ah, you crazy interblog - We love you.
