This is the end

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Effective immediately, The Tribune will no longer be offering the Inside SanLuisObispo.com blog.  Instead, you will find all my usual ramblings (including my original Charter Communications spying post) at MySLOCounty.com, where I will continue to post in a non-Tribune sanctioned capacity.
I want to offer a sincere “thank you” to my legions of […]

Relay for Life

Monday, May 12th, 2008

Today, more than a week later than promised, Justin finally started his gaming blog. He has, naturally, chosen to write about the highly controversial (read: awesome) GTA4. Take a look at his blog, then you can get back to playing GTA4.
A couple of weeks ago, I got an email from […]

Streamingly Idiotic

Monday, May 5th, 2008

No doubt you will have noticed that The Tribune has started broadcasting live streaming video of the county supervisors race forums. Last week, we hosted the 3rd district debate here at the Tribune office and today we went to the Paso Robles Inn for the District One debate.I won’t bore you with the details of […]

Shiny new blogs

Monday, April 28th, 2008

It’s an exciting day for blogging on SanLuisObispo.com, for today we have implemented phase one of an awesome new plan to improve our staff blogs. Starting this afternoon, the existing Features blog, SLOGoings, is no more. Instead features writers Pat Pemberton and Sarah Linn are dividing their resources up […]

Of tea and weddings

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

I stay up pretty late, and get to work pretty early. That’s a combination that requires a hefty dose of caffeine in the morning; otherwise I get grumpy (although Sally would say that it doesn’t really make a difference). I’m not a fan of coffee, so I tend to get […]

New and improved…stuff

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

It’s been a while since I posted last, but I have an excuse, I’ve been really busy working on new stuff for you guys.
First, we have all new winery, dining and hotel listings which we’ve added to our community calendar software. These are a vast improvement over the old system as now in […]

Why is that week-old story still on the homepage?

Monday, April 7th, 2008

I’m not sure how many of our regular story commenters actually read this blog (as many keep asking the same questions that I’ve already answered here), but here’s my answer for another issue that I saw crop up recently:
A story about three men arrested for allegedly soliciting lewd acts at an Atascadero Lake Park restroom […]

I love April Fool’s Day.

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

This morning, I arrived at work to hear rumours that the Cuesta Grade was closed, the reason given was that there was “something to do with elephant seals”. What the seals were supposed to be doing, I have no idea. Frolicking perhaps.
Since Elephant seals really have no business on the Grade, this made […]

Hasta la vista, shiny new camcorder

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

You could sense the excitement yesterday morning when an email went out from our fearless leader, Chip, informing us that Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Terminator himself, would be visiting The Tribune for a meeting with our editorial board.
The email went out around an hour and a half before Arnie was scheduled to arrive. No time […]
