Blog to follow: DCsocialite

Next on the  list of sites to highlight on my blogroll is DCsocialite. I've been long overdue in posting about Paul's blogging on his adventures in the city. Recently he visited our side of the river and wrote reviews about Circa and Crumbs in Clarendon.

DCsocialite has been around for over two years by my count, and hoping they continue to post restaurant and event reviews. Looking forward to more posts about Clarendon from them!

Blog to follow: Arlington Nightlife

I'm late on posting about this, but we are happy to have a great new blogger join the Arlington community: Arlington Nightlife. The blog and twitter feed is focused on the local evening attractions and events and is updated very frequently. Arlington Nightlife would pose some worrisome competition to me if Clarendon Nights wasn't non-for-profit.

It's great to watch such popular blogs like ARLNow and Clarendon Culture spring up over the past year or so and really contribute a lot to the local online community. Hoping Arlington Nightlife will also stick around and be just as successful. Welcome to the Arlington blogging scene!

How does Health Care Reform affect you?

Its hard to miss all the buzz about the health care debate now, especially in the DC area. Local blogger Bill Campbell is dedicating his site Tome of the Unknown Writer health care stories from America and countries with universal health care:

"
I thought it could be enlightening just to hear from regular people how they feel about our health care system. So, I'm looking for stories about their experiences, their views on health care, what they'd like to see happen in the future, stuff like that. Then I'll be posting each story as I get them. I don't care if they're pro or con. I only care that their honest. "

DC Blogger Meetup @ Madams Organ

I was lucky enough to attend the DC Bloggers at their second meetup tonight in Adams Morgan. I was able to chat with blogging veterans like Shevonne, Mike and Yali as well as fresh faced comedian Leon.

Talking to about a dozen well connected and experienced local bloggers was fun and helpful. It was interesting to see the diversity of attendees and how people where using social networks, Twitter, etc in different ways to reach their respective audiences.

I recommended joining networks like FriendFeed and Meetup to prevent missing out in local events like this one.
