A new local Columbus blog

Hi! This is a blog which will cover news, politics, and life in Columbus, Ohio. There are a number of other Columbus blogs out there, a bunch of which only started in the last few months. There’s something in the air I guess. This one aims to provide a perspective that you can’t get anywhere else. We’ll see how it goes.

I’m still tinkering behind the scenes on the layout and functionality, so it may be a bit bumpy the first couple of weeks. I’m going with a soft launch. In the meantime, there’s a blogroll to fill out, static pages to write, and WordPress code to hack.

If you want to write for the blog, let me know. In the event the site eventually makes money, you’ll start getting some of it. I know- everybody says that.

Hi Brian,

I just discovered your blog and am delighted to see that my husband’s blog, Planet of the Blind, is already included on your blogroll. Wonderful, thank you! I’ve returned the favor, both on Steve’s blog and on mine, www.thehomeinventoryblog.com

Nice to “meet” you!

Looks like this might be a great blog, i just wanted to contribute some insight regarding DUI checkpoints and updates on what areas to avoid on Saturday night. I have a local practice at 844 S Front St in downtown Columbus if you find yourself in need of an ally to defend you.

I enjoy reading local blogs. It’s like watching the local news without the airing of violent crimes.
