Here's today's Biloxi update from Kevin Wendt:

I've posted the Sun Herald's Friday pages at newspagedesigner.

It was a mad rush at the end of the night last night, but that's to be expected. Communication continues to get better as the Biloxi newsroom gets steady Internet access. I know it's been said before: How did newspapers ever publish before the Internet?!

We're now up to about 12-14 folks -- 7 from Biloxi, the rest from San Jose, Miami, Wichita, Aberdeen, Akron and Macon, and are making plans to bring in more. The plan is to keep publishing from Columbus, Georgia, for about another week and a half. So, the push is to attempt to get enough folks here to not rely on last-minute help from Columbus staffers (who have been incredibly, unbelievably gracious in hosting us and letting us work in their newsroom). We're also moving up from 24-page sections to 28-page sections starting today, with a desire to grow from there.

That's the update. Talk to you later, man.
