Behind Bars

I just found out the Lil Wayne has started a blog while in prison. Apparently eights months in prison is far too long for lil wayne to be away from his fans. Lil Wayne launched a brand new website in order to keep in touch with his friends and fans until he is released in November. The blog can be found at weezythanxyou.com. Lil wayne claims "i want all of you to know that i appreciated all the mail I get, and this is my way of saying thank you".

Despite the fact that Lil Wayne is denied internet access while in jail, he continues to hand write letters weekly, which will be transcribed by members of his team. Lil Waynes blog has generated a growing readership, and his first blog entry has resulted in hundreds of reader comments. I think its impressive that Lil Wayne, although behind bars has still managed to stay connecting with the outside world. The blogosphere time after time has proved to be such a unique development in the public sphere.
