I was actually supposed to run a blog about E stuff, but due to... a lot of reasons I stopped. It wasn't anything official (not linked from e.org) anyway. Afaik someone else made the same effort (in the same time with me, thats one of the reasons)Last time I talked with people (well, programmers..) about this stuff we figured its enough to just have up to date news on the site with RSS and all. Then having a blog wont be needed. Twitter is another thing, tho, so if you or someone else wants to twit stuff about whats happening in E - just go ahead. I wish lots of followers.
I think the biggest problem here is that we actually don't ... make much news related to end users. Code is being commited daily, but thats mostly cleanups, (small) bug fixes, refactoring, etc. Not much new features added to E, nor some really cool apps are being actively developed. And blogs and Twitter are for the end users who just want to follow the progress of the E project. The others are subscribing to e-users, devs are on this ml and certainly don't need additional ways to inform themselves.
