When I started spending so much time in LA, I found various community blogs, including blogging.la. It's been a good source for 'local finds' and other miscellanea.

A sister site, denver.metblogs has been around for a while, in a somewhat somnambulant form. The site is supposed to be about life in the various metropolitan areas that the blogs represent. Life in Denver must be a slow, sleepy existence since I responded to the call for more writers 16 days ago. No other new writers have been posted to the authors list. Maybe the flood of applicants was just too much to handle?
