I just recently came across a website/blog called downtownypsi.org. I
haven't read a whole lot of it yet, there IS a discussion going on
about other stuff recently discussed here on Grex. Like there's one
that started out as an item about that new Mecican Market on Michigan
Ave that just recently opened, it's now expanded into a discussion about
the local food co-ops and if/how they may or may not be cost effective
for those on limited incomes. So check it out! You can read the web
pages as a visitor or you can sign up for an account [so you can post
comments and such].
So what other cool sites are out there?

The one I find most interesting is Edward Vielmetti's.

He's got some nice links too.
But why so shy? How about posting the link to your blog?

I keep my blog on two sites, mostly because I prefer one and my readers
appear to prefer the other ;)
They are

Thanks for the links mentioned above... [And was able to find a couple
other cool sites to bookmark, too]. Lynne, I had run across your blog
awhile back but didn't know then how to bookmark it. Now I do... :-)

(For sites that are frequently updated - such as blogs or news sites -
an alternative to bookmarking is subscribing to the RSS feed. That way
you receive automatic notification when the site is updated, as well as
direct links to the new material.)

Also, the Safari Browser on Mac OS X (which is the one I think Denise
uses) has built-in RSS support.
