The term Blogging Tory refers to any one of the many authors
affiliated with the conservative Canadian community known as "The
Blogging Tories". Today, there are over a hundred and fifty text-based
blogs associated with the group, and there are new Blogging Tories every
day. The Tories stand as an inspiring example of a successful online
community where the ever-increasing numbers of affiliated members enjoy
a fertile environment for discussion and debate about the ideas that
shape the face of Canada.
The majority of Tory bloggers do make political events and topics the
focus of their blogs, but not all of the content that a Blogging Tory
creates and publishes is overtly related to the movements of the
Canadian parliament or the prime minister. Although the community
members were brought together by a shared conservative viewpoint, the
fact that not all of the postings on all of the member's blogs focus on
political topics is one of the most exciting things about the Blogging
Tories. On any given day, the main website's blogroll may feature
postings about Olympic medalists, a James Bond film festival in Quebec,
or a comical personal experience with a telemarketer. The idea that
having a political affiliation in common makes it possible to have a
fruitful discussion about other kinds of topics has interesting
implications for how online communities are established and how they
grow.
