Metro's new blog takes a three day weekend (updated)

After a grueling week of five, no wait, six posts, Metro’s new blogger is taking a well-deserved long weekend to recoup.

She has obviously typed her fingers to the bone!

Just for fun, let’s take a moment to run the numbers: Mary Sit said in her welcome post that she was going to post every day. We can now interpret that to mean she’ll post every work/week day. She will take holidays off (15 or so), and she probably has two weeks of vacation each year (10 days). As we have seen this week, her trend is to post once a day (except for yesterday when she did an extra post announcing her long weekend), so out of 365 posting opportunities each year, she’ll write about 236 posts.

Hang in there, Mary!

KEVIN WHITED ADDS (01-14-2007): Is METRO embarrassed over that MLK post? Perhaps so, because the post has simply vanished this morning, and clicking the link above produces an error message! Fortunately, Bloglines cached the post from the Sit and Spin blog’s RSS feed, so we’ll just post that here:

MLK Holiday

By Mary Sit

Monday, Jan. 15, is a METRO holiday to celebrate MLK Day. I’ll post again on Tuesday.

Deleting posts because they draw criticism isn’t something good bloggers do, and it’s certainly not the way for METRO to demonstrate its commitment to open, transparent dialogue with the public.

Then again, maybe it DOES demonstrate METRO’s commitment in that regard.
