Let me be one of the first to Welcome the Church, to the Bloggernacle–well, maybe not the ‘nacle, but certainly to the wide world of Blogging. The LDS Newsroom launched a new official Blog today. It doesn’t look like it will be quite as interactive (probably a good thing too) as we are used to in the ‘nacle. But, I applaud the Church’s use of this technology to get the official word out regarding Church news releases and the like. Welcome Newsroom Blog. See also the official announcement from the Newsroom. Steve Evans has also commented over at By Common Consent.

Guess we’ll have to wait to see a few posts to understand what they have in mind, but my first two questions are, how is it a blog when it isn’t interactive (although I can’t imagine how in the world they *could* allow feedback, given what usually happens when the church is the subject of anything), and how is it “reliable and accurate” yet “not official.”
Good luck to them.
