Week in review

By Curt Kipp — Posted November 21, 2008

Another very busy and eventful week on the Daily Digger blog, with a record number of visitors attained on Thursday, so welcome to all of our new readers! If you are just coming by at the end of the week, here’s what we reported on:

  • OAN and WSNLA consider merging (See also press release)
  • Christmas tree growers expect good year
  • Butterfly bush has one more year in Oregon
  • TV station reports on metal thieves
  • Campaign enlists public in beetle battle
  • Daily Digger adds sharing tools
  • Immigration forum held in K-Falls
  • E-Verify to be required of federal contractors … but some will be exempt
  • Nursery-grown edibles get attention
  • And last but not least, Daily Digger hits a milestone!

Thanks, everyone, for reading. We’ll see you during the short week next week, and if we don’t, Happy Thanksgiving!
