The New York Times reports on shared political blogger households in Washington:
Group living in the nation’s capital is nothing new. In Washington, the work-life balance often seems less balance and more all-consuming overlap.... the presence of a blogger house reflects the increasing number of online pundits in the capital. The Flophouse bloggers may not be part of the traditional mainstream news media, but they are certainly part of the mainstream blogosphere that is helping drive discourse in the city and the country.
Life in the house informs life on the blog, and life on the blog informs life in the house. When they work from home they spend more or less all day together, writing, and bouncing ideas off one another. Lucky fellows.
These political blogger households don't exist in Canberra yet.
