So … I made a change.
After ten years of using “What”s Up in the Neighborhood” as a tribute to the great local news site All Over Albany, I’ve made a wee tweak. Specifically, I’ve changed my Saturday blogroll recap to … “The Saturday Blogroll Recap.”
Over the years I’ve added more blogs from places outside of the Albany, New York area. And although I could say that we are currently in an overall “neighborhood,” I felt this title works for me.
And it’s not like I haven’t changed the blogroll recap title in the past. Originally it was called “Best of our TU Community Bloggers” when I blogged for the Albany Times Union; it was “Seven and Seven on Thursday,” when I left the TU but still wanted to feature the local blogs.
So I’m flexible on the title. Check back with me in 2035, maybe it’ll change again. 😀
