31 pages and counting...
The Lansing State Journal published the names and salaries of some 53,000 state employees on a searchable database. The comments on the database are robust to say the least, and include one reader who posted the editor's home address, phone number and property records ... public records aren't just for the media anymore.

Slate Launches Second Green Challenge To Reduce Carbon Emissions
The Slate Green Challenge launched today, encouraging people to go on a seven-week “carbon diet” to shed unwanted pounds of carbon dioxide emissions. In collaboration with the eco-Web site Treehugger.com, Slate is again asking Americans to consider their own contributions to global warming, challenging them to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide that individuals put into the atmosphere by 20 percent.
Last October, more than 30,000 people signed up for Slate’s Green Challenge, shedding more than 60 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions. In response to feedback from readers, this year’s challenge will cast a wider net to give credit to the already CO2-conscious and offer more carbon-cutting actions to encompass everyone from apartment dwellers to bus riders to people in warmer climates.
Each week of the Green Challenge opens with a short quiz, followed by easy actions people can take to reduce their individual carbon output. Once participants have registered, Slate will monitor individual progress in losing carbon poundage and collective poundage lost by individuals taking the challenge. Those who miss the launch date may start at any point by taking the initial quiz.

'Wash Post' Launches Epic 25-Part Web series
In what E&P calls "a bold move and experiment," The Washington Post is running an unprecedented 25-part series that starts in print but continues on the Web. Called "The Citizen K Street Project," it focuses on lobbying in the nation's capital.
"In the coming weeks, Robert G. Kaiser, associate editor of The Washington Post, will tell the story of Gerry Cassidy's career and the evolution of his firm in a unique fashion, combining the resources of both The Post and washingtonpost.com," the newspaper says. Summaries will appear in print but the story will run in full only on the Web. The series will conclude in the newspaper and on the web on April 8.
