So wait, you mean Brooklynites aren’t the only ones blogging about their neighborhoods? People from New Jersey have something to say (Sorry, Shore Chic!). That’s what a recent NY Times article says, anyway.

Baristanet out of Montclair is said to be the mother of all suburban blogs. Creative snob that I am, I couldn’t get past the boring design and photos of “those suburban types”. It wasn’t inviting me in. Of course founder Liz George gets the last laugh since she actually has a financially successful and well read blog.

Red Bank Green is more my speed, both in it’s writing style and design. It has a more young, hip feel. The writing reflects that as well. Yes, I do realize the irony. I am neithor young nor hip.

The Loop, serving parts of Westchester is both purdy and informative. They have rumor, rant and rave sections which is always fun.

Long Island is lacking in the blog department. That’s probably because the place is completely devoid of character and people are too busy getting manicures. I mean both men and women. Hey, any readers out there from Lawng Ieyland? Sorry! Love the place. Really.
