The response to replacing the blogroll with a Worth Reading section has mostly been good. Dirk thinks I’m “right on”, Scott likes the idea, jr won’t argue with me, and the biggest challenge I see is trying to keep to a regular schedule of updating it. I think I’ll shoot for weekly updates, which should get me through the sites I read regularly in about a year. Well, except for the ones that I read regularly that aren’t worth reading.
And I’m not sure if it’s a trend or not, but this week while I’ve been shorter on links, I’ve actually written more content for here. I think that’s a good thing, so you may see more of the same for a while. At least until home improvement and baseball season annihilates my free time this summer. And with that, I think I’m going to call this, and a few links, a morning update. Seeya tomorrow. I’m hoping for more links, especially to “fun” things, so use that suggest a pick link if you’ve got something you feel like sharing. Or just shoot me an email.
- The Minnespolis Observer’s Ballot Box will be more useful as we get closer to the local elections. It’s got pretty good coverage (though in something of a gossip-column tone) of how the local political scene is shaping up.
- As I mentioned yesterday, East River Market is now open just a couple blocks from me, and I’ve given you the rundown, including the full menu and some pictures.
- The City Pages has more on the Spider John Koerner movie that opens tomorrow in Faraway, So Close. And John is playing at The Cedar with Tony Glover on April 2nd, a night with far too many things already scheduled.
