Rolling

The Auckland Art Gallery is up and blogging with an early entry about relocating the research library. Our test for great blogs is how personal are they? Do they have a point of view? Did they tell us something new – and relevant? AAG have called theirs Outpost. That’s a start but here’s hoping it gets more opinionated, more inside-out and eases up on the process stuff. After all an Outpost is “A detachment of troops stationed at a distance from a main force.” One comment we liked in the rather long description of the library relocation, “During the pack-up, we found all sorts of intriguing items including a newspaper from 1974 that had an article on how Mick Jagger was still touring at the ripe old age of 31!” How about a picture?
