Thanks For The Memories…
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Hard to believe it was just 14 months ago that I made my first foray (on Nov. 28, 2006) into the blogosphere.
Seems like years.
If I count in blog terms, it was 288 entries and nearly 16,000 comments (and counting) ago. That’s in addition to writing more than 115 articles for ajc.com and what we now lovingly refer to as the “paper product” — remember that?
During that time, I tried my best to provide you with an inside look at the goings on in state education policy, keep you updated on important school news in Georgia and — most importantly — give you something to talk about.
We may not have always seen eye to eye, but I hope you’ll agree the effort was there.
Now the time has come to turn over the blogging reins to another AJC education reporter. Laura Diamond, who covers schools in Gwinnett County for us, will be the new host of Get Schooled starting Monday.
I think — and I think you will agree — that it’s time for a new voice here. My guess is many of you are as tired of hearing me blog as I am.
I’ve learned lots from this online community and I do hope that it continues to thrive in the years ahead.
So thanks, as the old song goes, for the memories.
