@budparr The basic idea is that ICJT needs fast-moving original content to discuss relevant issues in the field of ICJ. At present, the news aggregator, news and events feed, Arguendo, and Ipsos are great original and/or current news, but none of them are both original and current.
Further, such a blog will enhance our exposure, and thus, interest and donations to the cause of the ABA-ICC Project. A great example is Justice In Conflict, and what it has done for Mark Kersten's profile. http://justiceinconflict.org/
Organizationally, I do not want to further burden ICJT or clutter the screen so to speak. But I think we can create a very simple blog (even appoint certified bloggers a la Huffington Post) yet find a way for ICJT splash page to advertise it.
