Week Around The -Ists
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:
Londonist found photos of the day the space shuttle came to London, and took a special trip on the city's new Tube line, getting a video from inside the driver's cab.
Phillyist nominated yet another asshole of the week, and not without controversy.
Chicagoist ran a special video series, "Detailed," in which they explored four examples of local, self-employed artisans: The Chef, The Carpenter, The Bookbinder, and The Technician.
LAist was shaken up by a 4.4 earthquake at 4:04 Tuesday morning, and by talk that the San Diego "runaway Prius" was maybe a hoax.
Torontoist, following in Londonist's footsteps, figured out their city's exact geographic center. With science!
Gothamist's commenters think a NJ woman's fantasy to become 1,000 pounds is, well, kind of insane.
SFist was shocked and delighted to hear that Orly Taitz, queen of the birther movement, has decided to run for the Republican Party's nomination for California's Secretary of State.
Bostonist contemplated 1,001 beers.
