Imagine if a mainstream site acknowledged the existence of blogs

Tip of the hat to the folks at bthesite.com for including prominent links out to Baltimore based and Baltimorecentric blogs in the main well of the recently redesigned site.

(Disclosure: I helped create bthesite.com and argued loudly for the inclusion of local blogs)



The local blogs have been there since day one, but were somewhat hidden in the left rail. Now, they're pushed out front and center.

It's great to see a major-market news organization showing signs that it realizes it lives in a wider web.
