You might have noticed a certain wood-paneled button hanging out in the sidebar lately. Well, in case you for some reason only noticed the texture and not the bold text emblazoning the button, you should know it’s for our new and improved Tipline! No, we’re not accepting your loose change – although that might explain why we’re only looking at vacation options in a 50 mile vicinity. The tips we’re looking for are suggestions for stories that haven’t made it onto this blog…yet.

Maybe you’ve got an event for our weekly Party Line. Or maybe there are some awesome P-Bruins photos on Flickr you want our Sports team to see. Or maybe, just maybe, you’re sitting on a really important news story that people need to hear about. We’ll take it all.

Thanks in advance for the tips! And no, that’s not our desk pictured above. It’s a Creative Commons photo, courtesy heathercore. But that Dwight Schrute bobblehead sure is sweet…
