Bloggers take their case to Washington

“I like to think of myself as just a guy with a blog, but it’s clear that ’just a guy with a blog’ is different today than it was when I started three years ago,” said Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, founder of the Web log www.DailyKos.com. “One sign of having arrived is when government regulators start wanting to poke their fingers into what you do.”
