Sometimes I feel like writing about things that don't fit Dispatches from the Hogtown Front, which is mostly concerned with immigration and multiculturalism. While Hogtown Front will always be my main blog, I've been thinking about starting some other blogs to deal with subjects that don't fit here.
Today, I started Michael's Bloor-Lansdowne Blog, where I will write about things that are happening in my local neighbourhood. I live in a mostly immigrant neighbourhood, so some topics will fit both blogs.
I'll play it by ear, but my rule of thumb will be this: if the event in my neighbourhood is directly related to immigration or multiculturalism, I'll write about it on Hogtown Front, but if the event is just local neighbourhood news I'll post it on the Bloor-Lansdowne Blog. In some cases, I might write about the same event on both blogs, emphasizing the immigration aspect on this blog.
Hogtown Front is my main blog and will continue to get most of my time and attention.
