Nor even agreement. but, as with Republic, i believe the idea is to give people who are new to the blogosphere the opportunity to get a sampling of what's out there in terms of Filipino bloggers. Kinda like a portal, if you wish. cvj: i totally agree. :) jeg: cvj was actually the very first blogger I approached with the Republic idea, so I totally agree with you. :)

Some of my favorite blogs like Crookedtimber, Cosmicvariance, 3quarksdaily and Marginalrevolution are group blogs. It's about time we have a couple if only to lay to rest that old stereotype and prove that Filipinos are able to work together. Jeg, thanks.
