'''The Bwog''' is the blog of ''[[The Blue and White]]'' magazine, centered on campus news and gossip. It was launched on [[January 30|January 30th]], [[2006]].<ref>[http://www.bwog.net/publicate/index.php?page=post&article_id=74 "You Can Take the Soviet Out of Russia..."], ''Bwog'', 1/30/06 - First post to Bwog</ref> Some consider it to be snotty and elitist. Others consider it witty and entertaining. Most people read it regardless.
 
 
 
Bwog launched into fame in October [[2006]] with its nearly real-time coverage of the [[Minuteman stage-rush]] incident. A popular sister blog launched in [[2008]] to cover the exploits of [[Hawkmadinejad]]. A major redesign unveiled on [[January 1]], [[2009]] has received mixed reviews.
 
 
 
Its current editor in chief is [[James Downie]], who succeeds [[Juli Weiner]], [[Lydia DePillis]], and Bwog founder [[Taylor Walsh]].
