ARC gets into the Blogging Act

The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) cranked up a blog of their own. ARC describes themselves:

The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) is the regional planning and intergovernmental coordination agency for the 10-county area including Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry and Rockdale counties, as well as the City of Atlanta. For more than 50 years, ARC and its predecessor agencies have helped to focus the region's leadership, attention and resources on key issues of regional consequence.

ARC is dedicated to unifying the region's collective resources to prepare the metropolitan area for a prosperous future. It does so through professional planning initiatives, the provision of objective information and the involvement of the community in collaborative partnerships.

The blogs "welcome to my blog" post:

The Atlanta Regional Commission is pleased to announce the launch of this online community. We will use this forum to obtain input on a variety of topics, which will then be used to identify action items for staff and committees to address during the regional planning process.

Interesting move. Will some of the keep and eye on the ARC start their own counterblogs?
