A couple of readers have asked us to nominate the post that had the biggest impact. There were several but we were proud of this one from 18 December 2007 - Peter Dunne changed his position on the EFA the day it came out, and it wasn't a bad prediction on what happened 11 months later:
Dec 18, 2007
Has The Next Government Already Been Formed?
Who is opposing the Electoral Finance Bill? - National, Maori, Act.
Who is raising serious questions about the emissions trading law? - National, Maori, Act.
Have Labour's tacticians maybe blundered and forged what had previously been thought to be an unlikely alliance? - Maybe.
Might Peter Dunne be risking three years completely out in the cold if he goes ahead and supports the Electoral Finance Bill today? - Yes.

Final Dispatch
The Hive was established in late November 2007 as a reaction to the proposed passage of bad legislation – the Electoral Finance Act. The collaborators had several other goals:
To experiment with the power of this new media tool – a blog;
To raise the standard of political debate – particularly around trade and economic policy and about the policy response to climate change;
To expose the truth about Winston Peters’ performance as Foreign Minister and the funding of the NZ First Party;
To assist the wider news media to understand the importance of some issues that had previously been misunderstood, misreported or not reported.
During 2008 we became increasingly frustrated at the way New Zealand was being run, particularly over the process around the proposed emissions trading scheme, foreign investment (eg Auckland Airport), and the squandering of billions on a poor investment (Kiwirail).
We also became concerned about the politicisation of the public service and the fear from some in the public service about providing free and frank advice to Ministers. Ministers were in some cases being told what they wanted to hear as opposed to the truth. And the public were not being told the truth because Ministers would not let officials tell the truth. The likely cost of carbon credits is a classic example.
A year after its establishment the collaborators are pleased that pretty much all goals have been achieved. They are not displeased with some recent developments also:
The decisive result at the election;
The removal of NZ First from Parliament;
The participation of the Maori Party in Government;
The election of Phil Goff and Annette King as leader and deputy leader of Labour.
The probability that Mike Williams will stand down from the Labour Party Presidency and be replaced with Andrew Little.
In sum there has, we believe, been a fundamental shift in New Zealand politics. The Hive, we believe, played a roll in achieving this shift. In the last month it moved to #4 in the ranking of NZ political blogs and was achieving an impressive daily readership of close to 3,000 opinion formers every day Monday to Friday with a daily readership at weekends closer to 1,200.
So we have decided to call it quits on The Hive. We will leave it up as it is an interesting resource for those studying New Zealand politics and history. Those studying the impact of blogs on New Zealand politics will also find this a useful resource.
The Hive has been a collaboration involving around a dozen people. Backgrounds include politicians, lobbyists, journalists and business people. Two of us are discussing a fully commercial venture (once the EFA is abolished) which will seek to continue the improvement of debate and analysis of key issues confronting New Zealand. Watch this space in the New Year.
We thank the collaborators for the hours they donated to this effort. Everything has been done on a voluntary basis, usually late at night or early in the morning.
And thanks again to our readers. Many of you contributed comments. All comments were read and had some form of impact. Thank you for being part of The Hive.

Do Political Blogs Make A Difference?
The Herald on Sunday today features a blog post from Norightturn which asks "Do political blogs make a difference?"
Idiot/Savant who writes NRT says that answer. according to academics studying the 2005 election was "not really".
We look forward to reading the political analysis done on 2008. We suspect that the answer might be different. Political blogs still don't have mass appeal in New Zealand - Kiwiblog being perhaps the exception - but readership is growing, and the quality of that readership is improving greatly. The impact of the blogs is mostly on those who impact wider public opinion rather than directly influencing the average voter. And in that regard there are few politicians, journalists, business leaders, lobbyists, communications managers etc who are not reading and monitoring the blogs on a regular basis. Some people are even leaving it to the blogs to filter their news for them while the media monitoring services are summarising the most read blogs for their clients. In turn those involved in communications are now beginning to use the blogs as they would the wider media to try and influence opinion one way or another.

Latest Blog Rankings Out
Thanks to Tim Selwyn for doing all the hard work again to produce the latest NZ Blog rankings. He has posted a new top 20. There are quite a few big moves, perhaps not surprising given the forthcoming election.

Comments
We remind readers of our comments rules. This is our blog and we will exercise the right to enforce these rules. With the exception of Winston we encourage you to debate the issues not the people. We are not the slightest bit interested in discussions about anyone's sexuality. And if you abuse us we will either leave or delete depending on our mood at the time. But don't abuse others. Go comment on their blogs or write to them direct.
This week a totally unfair comment on the Governor of the Reserve Bank was deleted (sorry it took so long but it was a busy day and sometimes the team cannot monitor the blog for some hours). And today we deleted an abusive comment because it was abusing quite a few people, none of whom was Winston Peters.
Our policy is far more liberal than that on Winston Peters' blog. And we want to keep it so.
We don't want to have to moderate the comments before they get posted (as Winston does). But if people keep ignoring the rules we will either do that or go back to complete removal of the function.
As readers will have noted we do take full account of all criticism and encourage it so long as the intent is constructive. We want to keep offering a better service.

A Clipping Service Not A Blog?
Thanks to Technorati we discovered a post on a blog we have never seen before, or heard of before, attacking The Hive and Queen Bee. It seems that the person or persons involved might have been involved in, or fans of, the late Kiwiblogblog. Clearly something we said about Kiwiblogblog has got under their skin as aside from this blog post, a number of comments have been left on The Hive about something we said about Kiwiblogblog. We do recall two posts about Kiwiblogblog. In one we noted that Kiwiblogblog was questioning our influence when it was but one rank above us in the Tumeke blog rankings (with a lower Alexa global and NZ rating than we had) and the following month we recall leaving Kiwiblogblog in the dust in these same rankings. We might have expressed some pleasure at this development.
Anyway Backin15 doesn't think we are a blog. Instead we are a clipping service interested "in developing blog-channels back to the MSM, not in providing some new insights for the blogosphere."
We are also "a slightly toned down version of the run of the mill right-wing attack site. The language is more muted and the editorial line less didactic but the focus is no different."
Thanks for the review Backin15. We take these comments seriously and will strive to keep standards higher and provide some genuine insights (we think we do, but will try harder). Poneke has made similar comments which we have also taken on board. We are a little bemused by the title to your title Backin15. "Chastened Not Chaste". Were you somehow listening in to our discussion the other day with a fellow blogger over his lack of political dedication by having sex (several times already) before the election campaign is over? Queen Bee in contrast is refusing to allow anything to distract from the task at hand, and will certainly be remaining chaste until the new Cabinet is sworn in after the election!

New Record
3,655 unique visits today. We thought that Winston's many lies was good for readership! But Nick Kelly Communist Union Boss is pretty good also. If you have not viewed the video we linked to earlier today you should. This certainly circulated around town and surprise, surprise by 5pm the two parties were back at the table, with the focus on a solution for Wellington workers, as opposed to world revolution. We are now more hopeful of an outcome!
Shame on the Labour Party and Green Party for supporting this dangerous twat! If you have not watched the video you should (down the bottom of the page).

The Line Between Journalism And Blogging II
An afterthought. A journalist would have had trouble getting away with some our our posts. Last night's "Who Stole Cunliffe's Stick" was an example.
The Line Between Journalism And Blogging
Vernon Small has kicked off quite a debate. Here is our contribution. The logic is a bit random but we have been interrupted multiple times.
First we remind you what The Hive is:
in terms of the Electoral Finance Act 2007, The Hive is a news media Internet site that is written by, or selected by or with the authority of, the editor or person responsible for the Internet site solely for the purpose of informing, enlightening, or entertaining our readers.
Queen Bee edits The Hive, but two professional journalists are regularly contributing to The Hive's content. They are doing so in a personal (ie non-paid) capacity. A number of business people, politicians, lobbyists etc likewise provide content. All involved are non-remunerated as The Hive has no sponsors and generates (by choice) no revenue. For everyone it is a hobby.
Queen Bee does not pretend to be a journalist. And QB could not do some things journalists do. QB could perhaps survive a Labour, National or ACT Party Conference (just) but would not want to be there. QB would not be able to tolerate a NZ First or Green activity. QB would vomit or have an aneurysm after a few minutes. Yet journalists are assigned to said gatherings and survive pretty much intact. This is the difference between a blogger and a professional journalist. QB supports no party, but has very firm views on policy and gets very angry if stupid policy is being proposed. Journalists are made of sterner stuff. Colin James does not vote. QB's favorite act every three years is going to the polling booth to exercise the democratic right.
Money is not the issue. QB has been paid (paid quite well) to write regular columns for international publications, and is right now writing for one specialist publication on a specialist topic and being remunerated for this. QB was last election paid once for a political commentary but donated it to charity. QB is a commentator and analyst, not a journalist. There is a difference. To us the difference is clear. We hope you agree.
Circulation is a bit of an issue as far as business and political parties are concerned. Kiwiblog has a relatively huge readership. A smart business or political party would want Farrar there at their event. His readership is bigger than some well respected MSM publications. Our own readership this week (Monday-Thursday) has been 1,000 plus a day. It has regularly been 800 plus Monday-Friday. Smart businesses and organisations take note of this . They also take note of the quality of the readership. NZX and others invite us to press conferences and send us their media statements. This is smart business practice. (For the record we don't attend in The Hive capacity though could be there wearing another hat).
We frankly don't mind any blogger brave enough to attend a political convention or conference being allowed to accredit and attend such an event. If the MSM feel offended by their presence then why not set up a separate blogger section?
We have been observing international development on the blog front closely. We are a bit behind the times here in NZ but the blogs are growing in influence here too. If the MSM don't respond (and we stress that the response is in most cases welcome and impressive) they could find themselves left in the dust. Feel free to be precious about your Press Gallery accreditation. As far as we are concerned you are welcome to keep it. We can't think of one advantage it confers.
