Further Proof of the Hipness of TSA's Blog

The bloggers there are actually reading hipster-nerd comic XKCD. This is exactly what bloggers--in government and elsewhere--should be doing. Keeping eyes on trends and conversations bubbling up from the far reaches of society, contributing to and influencing those conversations, and answering questions where possible. This seems corny, I know. But it's genuinely important. And I continue to be impressed that TSA is getting it right. I wonder if that's an advantage for a new agency, that folks aren't set in their ways about communication, and so people who want to do things like this can.
