Pressthink rated the Houston Chronicle the nation’s (US) top blogging newspaper! Hats off to Dwight Silverman even if there isn’t a tech section in the Chronicle any more. Really, if the Chronicle lets someone steal him away it would be a HUGE loss.
Here are the results from Pressthink via this link from Dwight’s blog.
1. Houston Chronicle (128 points)
2. Washington Post (69 points)
3. USA Today (38 points, 1 honorable mention)
4. St. Petersburg Times (29 points, 2 honorable mention)
5. Atlanta Journal-Constitution (23 points)
6. San Antonio Express-News (22 points, 1 honorable mention)
Interestingly enough I had another conversation with a Houston Chronicle reporter tonight regarding the Only in Houston movement. I still miss the Post, yet I sure appreciate the Chronicle waking up and supporting the local community and conversation!
As a panelist for the PRSA SW District conference in Fort Worth tomorrow and Friday, I will FIND a way to mention this blogging success from the Chronicle at the conference. Sweeeeeet!
