What's This I Hear About Blogging On Patch?
Do You Want To Add Your Voice To The Newest Community Platform?
On May 4, Patch launched a new platform on all its sites that hosts blogging. Since its founding three years ago, Patch has always been a place where people in the community can share their news and voice their opinions. The addition of blogging on Patch simply raises that commitment to the next level.
All the Patches in southeastern Connecticut have invited people to launch blogs on the sites, but even Patch doesn't know everyone. Do you have an area of expertise or a particular hobby or interest that you would like to share with readers? If so, we encourage you to email the editors of our local Patches (see bottom of article for their contact info) to make your pitch.
In the meantime, we wanted to give you a sampling of the blogs we have on some of the sites to give you an idea of what it looks like and how it works.
