Volokh Conspiracy Partners With the Washington Post

Via Ed Driscoll, "Volokh Conspiracy Takes the Boeing."

Check that link for the announcement, and here's Eugene Volokh at the Post, "In Brazil, you can always find the Amazon — in America, the Amazon finds you."

And flashback, to Right Wing News, "The Slow, Painful Coming Death of the Independent, Conservative Blogosphere":

Really, it’s simple: Get big or go home.

Yeah, well, partnering with the Washington Post is going pretty big. But read Volokh's entry. It's pretty funny how many assurances he gives that his blog will still have community, still have independence, etc. Indeed, he's not giving up Volokh.com in case "going big" ain't so hot after all. So, if you're a blogger, take heart. Diversity is strength. I personally don't trust (most) blogs that go all corporate. Smaller blogs keep the independent spirit alive. I mean, really. The Other McCain at the New York Times? I don't think so.
