Authors often blogging about PostGIS (like Paul and Regina) could concentrate their post about PostGIS there. We could accept occasional posts from advanced users and repost posts made by others. That would be a kind of one-stop blog for PostGIS. We could name it "The PostGIS Blog".

I belive in aggregators, like planet.osgeo.org.
No problem with me in having a "The PostGIS Blog" aggregator.
