AIEEEEEE! Tipsy Australian Democrat Andrew Bartlett wants to start blogging:
Senator Bartlett said he was looking at new ways of using the site, such as making it more interactive through a "blog", or online journal to which website visitors could contribute.

Bartlett is a big fan of interactively communicating ideas.
