Patch won't own what you post, so you can repost your entries to your other blogs.

Much like The Huffington Post has done, Patch is already providing local bloggers an online platform to have their words seen by a larger audience.

Be interesting. Be provocative. Be yourself.

My role as editor will be to review blog entries submitted to Banning-Beaumont Patch to ensure there are no libelous claims. I might correct obvious typos, too.
