RSS FeedDC’s Neighborhoods…Revised & Relinked
In June of 2006, PQ Living (then Gallery Place Living) added 9 neighborhood websites to its link list as a way to point readers to residents in other areas of Washington DC dedicated to the craft of narrating and recording a neighborhood’s history. Fast forward three years and that network now covers much more of DC. It is not surprising that it’s grown and we added links as we noticed additional neighborhood sites pop up. Will this network of “open source” news supplant the Metro section in the Washington Post? Not likely to happen soon but in their own way, these sites are dedicated to the same local news delivery mission using a neighborhood-up instead of a metro-down approach.
Yesterday, we debuted a revised link list in the right column below the Recent Comments and DC Links sections to now include 28 neighborhood sites that we feel are emblematic of the craft. What did it take to qualify? A bent towards neighborhood content and recent, regular updates. We encourage all readers to poke their heads into other parts of the city by visiting these sites. How many sites do you check? Vote using our latest poll (upper right). You don’t even have to leave the comfort of your browser to check out another part of DC!
