'12. Dylan Jones-Evans on why the Tories in Wales need to get their act together in the blogosphere.'

I've given him a couple of blogs to check out...and only one of them was mine (a terrible bout of self promotion!), though I steadfasttly refuse to get my act together. I'm far to laissez-faire for that.

Most 'political' things on the internet have previously appeared on the print or TV media.
