Director of OMB Peter Orszag talks in this You Tube spot about OMB starting a blog, and reveals his blog reading habits, as well as his thoughts about blogging in general. OMB is a great Department for blogging, as federal budget process is not always easily understood, even by members of Congress. Good job, Mr. Director.

Mayor Manzi:
Hi. I think the idea that he is doing for a Blog is a sound one. Do you for see other Cabinet Members or Members of Congress following suit. Also How About the Methuen City Government doin blogs besides yourself.

Gerard,
I do this blog because I believe it is a good medium to have discussion with the readers about issues of the day. I am not sure if anyone else in City government would care to spend the time on it that I do, but it is not a bad idea.
