Courier Journal now syndicating blogs

It was only a matter of time before Gannett did this with The Courier-Journal but they are now syndicating Kentucky area blogs at 502 Blogs. This is an excerpt from Ric Manning's comment.

502 Blogroll is a syndication service that brings together news, opinion, features and ideas from the active blog community in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. We have collected RSS feeds from more than 65 area blogs and organized them by topic. Each topic is updated with fresh posts every hour.

We created this collection of Louisville-area bloggers in order to increase communication in our community and to spotlight local writers and topics of interest. And we thought your blog belonged in this select group. We also think your blog will benefit from being part of the 502 Blogs community. Newspaper websites in Nashville and Cincinnati have created similar collection sites and bloggers there say the increased visibility is bringing them more visitors.

I haven't really had a chance to check it out yet.
