Some things I should have done a long time ago:
My father, Daniel Serwer, recently started a blog, Peacefare. (Those of you who send me hate mail accusing me of being the child of Fortune's Andy Serwer, I apologize for disappointing you.) Pop has spent decades in diplomacy and foreign affairs, first at the State Department and later at the U.S. Institute of Peace. His politics aren't my politics, but he offers a great deal of institutional knowledge about foreign affairs and insight on politics in the Balkans and Iraq, where he is now. I've had years to enjoy pop's er, peace stories, and I'm delighted that he's decided to share some of them with the blogosphere.
Spencer Ackerman has moved Attackerman to a typepad blog following an amicable divorce from Firedoglake. Spencer is one of the pioneers of blogging as a reported medium, and I count him among my favorite writers, period. Most of his time has been wrapped up with Wired's Danger Room, but he's recently promised to bring punk rock back to the lefty blogosphere so you should encourage him by subscribing to his new feed.
Finally, I'm going to slow down the pace of this blog a little bit. My best posts are ones I take time on, and I feel like lately I've just been content farming, feeding the blogmonster instead of doing the research and reporting that makes for good blogging.
That's all. Update your RSS feeds!
