"Tex" here. Those years from 2005 to 2009 really were a vibrant era for local, independent journalists and bloggers. A lot of that energy has now shifted towards Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit, and it feels more scattered and less impactful. The powerhouse combo of Bossert, Wilson, Devlin, and IHeart during that time was really something. It makes me wonder if we'll ever witness a return to trust in local personalities, as we see AI increasingly making the online landscape less and less stable. Anyway, thanks for the stroll down memory lane, @AccountableSCV.
