Since I have an interest in both citizen journalism and local blogging, I found PotreroHillSF.com to be of interest. It began on May 27 of this year and is self-described as “A community blog for the neighbors of Potrero Hill.”
Interesting how the backyard fence is (or may be) being replaced by digital communication avenues. Not sure what I think of it philosophically (the backyard fence, I think, has valuable aspects that can’t be replaced by the digital approach), but it definitely is something the Christian community should keep its eye on as a possible means of outreach.

I believe that the internet provides today's church with a historic opportunity .... to tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love in ways which could only have been imagined in times past. The objective of this website is to explore the various ways in which today's technology can be used to spread the gospel around the world.
