A New Bookmark

I feel like someone who is cheating on his spouse.

The Falls Village Blog is no longer my only website. For the past few months, I have been working with Marilyn Bethany, a colleague from my days at New York Magazine and The New York Times, who now lives full-time in Columbia County. We have created an online magazine called Rural Intelligence that I hope will become a part of your lives. Our goal is to be the best source for information about dining, the arts, shopping, parties, charities and controversies for the residents of our region who work and play in three states and four counties--Berkshire, Columbia, northern Dutchess and northern Litchfield.

Every story and every restaurant review is "bloggable" so you can leave comments and share tips about everything from where to get the best steak and where to see the best Shakespeare to where to go for a Sunday outing and the most scenic shortcut for driving there. Like the Falls Village Blog, it will be updated frequently and it will be a living, dynamic and evolving forum for our unique and beautiful regional community.

Congratulations Dan and Marilyn! Its an excellent site and I love how it just inherently builds regional community. What about a 'for kids' section? Sometimes its hard to know what's out there, particularly for weekenders, and summertime planning is upon us!
