It might be February and

It might be February and miserable outside, but my purely qualitative analysis is that it's springtime on the World Wide Web. Not just that romance is fully in bloom, but intriguing and compelling things like { citystories } are taking shape.

I can't wait to see what Cam does with NY Stories. Derek asks on the CityStories site, "What city do you love?" and I can have only one answer. I fear it's not unique, in fact it's trite enough that the thought has its own jingle: I Love New York.

As the reluctant romantic in me has been waking up these past few weeks, (did I mention I'm listening to Stevie Wonder again...?) I find myself returning to one of my first true loves, which is the city I live in. Aren't you jealous?
