This isn't new news, but in light of the fact he's nominated for an Ellie tonight we wanted to take the opportunity to point out that Hendrik Hertzberg has his own blog over at TheNewYorker.com.

As a rule we've found this to be a lovely development in so far as we don't have to wait seven days for his "Talk of the Town" column. However, from time to time, it's also been a rather painful development since we can no longer labor under the delusion that Hertzberg spends seven days in contemplative seclusion in order to compose his weekly gems. Apparently he's just a genius. Also, he's funny.
