From the home of the Calgary Flames comes a blog that reminds us once again that it is not the politicians or marketing machines who rule the blogwaves, but rather the do-it-yourselfers. CalgaryGrit’s political analysis is amateur in the best sense of the word. It shows the ability of blogs to showcase an opinion without having to pander to corporate or editorial ideologies as journalists in the past have had to. Although CalgaryGrit has an admittedly liberal slant to it, its conversational style realizes the dream of the blogosphere as a political realm for the everyman.

What’s the deal with this website?
You're reading BlogCampaigning. We write about public relations, social media, video games, marketing and pretty much whatever we feel is important. We've been around since August, 2006

Jens "Schredd" Schroeder has been around since the beginning, and he mostly writes about video games.

Heather Morrison is our newest recruit, and she also blogs about life in the big city at Toronto Uncovered.

All of the content on this site is cleaned up by Adam Gorley, our resident copy-editor. He does a hell of a job, and he also writes a few posts for us now and then. Not a lot of people know this, but he is also a soul music DJ who goes by the name "Night Danger."

Parker Mason is the self-described Editor-in-Chief of BlogCampaigning and runs the site with an iron fist. He's also a pretty great guy - you should meet him sometime.

Espen Skoland started this website a few years ago so that he could get extra marks for his thesis, but he's pretty much given up on contributing. Still, we often refer to him as The Legendary Founder. He might be lazy, but he left us with a legacy.
