Karl reports the following at PhillyFuture:
Dan Rubin, the Inquirer's first blogger to engage the local blogosphere, announced the Inky was promoting him into a columnist position, and shutting down Blinq.
Congrats to Dan Rubin for the move, but as I said in his comments thread, Blinq should live – either with a new blogger keeping it on, or with Dan using it as a tool for his new column. The shuttering of the URL, of the community that rose around Dan's engagement at Blinq, is self-inflicted wound.
To which I say Inky management is STUPID STUPID STUPID!
