Via Blinq, one of the blogs at the Inquirer, I just discovered Young Philly Politics, a group blog that seems to be mostly devoted to local issues. There’s a lot of really good discussion there, including a post by Ben Waxman called Why Blogs Matter that turned into a conversation about the priorities reformers should have, as well as the conflict and compatibility between issues of good-government reform (currently huge in Philly) and issues of economic justice (currently not quite so huge, but always simmering in the background).
Hmm. I wonder what the cutoff for “Young” is . . .
