Blogwatch
By Jeremy Caplan
Having assembled an army of bloggers out of some 250 of her celebrity and politician friends, Arianna Huffington last week launched her much hyped HUFFINGTONPOST.COM. Randomness rules: a cute photo from mockumentary filmmaker Christopher Guest's garden ("my first sprout of the year") follows a bitter gibe from playwright David Mamet on New York magazine drama critic John Simon, fired last week "from the post he long disgraced." But there's no way to search, and the bloggers share a cluttered home page with sundry news links. If you're not a fan, you can find company on blogs like HUFFINGTON IS FULL OF CRAP. --By Jeremy Caplan
