Edward Vielmetti, who you may remember from the Asterisk/Parking piece, writes great blog posts. Whether on his personal site, AnnArbor.com, or numerous other blogs, Ed’s posts certainly capture my attention.

Recently, Ed started writing a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) Friday series, detailing examples and stories from the world of Public Information. The article mostly deals with the Michigan FOIA, however parallels can be drawn for other states (such as Florida’s Sunshine Laws) and the Federal government.

It’s a great read. This week, Ed discusses how to write a FOIA request. Check out the post at http://www.annarbor.com/news/government/foia-friday-how-to-write/.
