Between the Anglican row, the last few days of the presidential campaign, cloning in Britain, spitting in Israel, and a million other stories, the papers are putting out religion stories faster than we can compile them.

Launched in 1999, Christianity Today’s Weblog was not just one of the first religion-oriented weblogs, but one of the first published by a media organization. (Hence its rather bland title.) Mostly compiled by then-online editor Ted Olsen, Weblog rounded up religion news and opinion pieces from publications around the world. As Christianity Today’s website grew, it launched other blogs.

The column was later renamed "Tidings" and ran until 2007.
