Londonist is one of thirteen in the worldwide Gothamist network. Once a week, the editors of each site - from SFist to Shanghaiist - compile some of their most interesting posts into a neat digest. Check out what's been going on elsewhere in the ist-a-verse:

Torontoist investigated some onomatopoeias ("OUCH!" "THUNK!" "OOF!" "YIPE!") painted along a road, pointing to potential hazards for cyclists.

Gothamist had its fill of salt-related news: There was "salty" Eric Massa's resignation and "snorkeling" allegations and then a NY lawmaker's proposal to ban salt.

Bostonist spent the week pondering local challenges to Obama's health care reform from both the right and the left.

Seattlest went behind the scenes of much-lauded local pizza place Delancey.

Chicagoist began a new series in their ongoing look at the battle to bring another Wal-Mart to the city, this time exploring what it's like to work at the store.

Shanghaiist found a cafe advertisement for Starf*cks.

LAist couldn't apply the brakes to the comments section on this post about a San Diego man's runaway Prius.

Phillyist co-editor Jenn DiSanto and staff writer Leigh Simpson represented Philly at the Disney Princess Half Marathon ... and made it to the finish line.

SFist waited in line to visit the SF Underground Market.

Houstonist pondered the addition of two minor league baseball teams within its metroplex.
