and the commute is great, too
I got off a good line in an interview for richmond.com’s A Hotbed of Citizen Journalism:
“It comes down, I think, to the fact that Richmond has these great, old neighborhoods,” said John Murden, creator of one of Richmond’s first community sites, the Church Hill People’s News. “Church Hill is distinct from Jackson Ward and is distinct from the Fan and Oregon Hill, and so we have all these little areas that were well served by community newsletters in the past – it just goes back to the neighborhoods.”
Me too: “push out crap.”
Awesome.
