Questions That Would Be Frequently Asked If Anybody Asked Questions Which They Dont.

Question: How do I add my blog?
Answer: There isn't currently a way to submit blogs for consideration. I am constantly on the lookout for new blogs and will hopefully find yours anyway

Question: How do I make sure my posts aggragated to the right city? Why aren't all my posts showing up?
Answer: I don't connect blogs to a city, I connect individual posts to a city. Only posts I can determine relate to a particular city are linked to it. Here's how you can make sure I know what city a post is about:

• Write posts about specific cities.
• Include both the city and state name in the post. For instance Rockville, MD instead of just Rockville.
• use [where: ] tags with the city name in them. for example

  [where: Rockville, MD]

  or

  [where: 250 Richard Montgomery Dr, Rockville MD]

  Be as specific as you can.
• Use intersections and Street names. Street names by themselves don't work all that well, there are tons of roads with the same name. (Any idea how many Spring Streets there are?) Intersections work much better. There is much less of two roads meeting in two different cities. I don't have intersection data for many cities yet though (Just Bethesda, Rockville, and Silver Spring).

Question: My post is about the whole county or whole state, how do I make it show up in every city?
Answer: You can't. I don't currently take county and state information into account.

Question: How can I contact you?
Answer: send email to
