Take that, Silicon Valley! Boston and Philly had an average of 89 and 88 blog posts per 100,000 residents, respectively, in March and April according to a Globe report today. The two “bloggiest” cities were more than 35 posts ahead of the nearest competition (Pittsburgh!).

Surprised? I was a little–pleasantly. But the article reminds us that “all politics is local,” and we have well-connected, well-educated communities of folks at just the right age range (college and graduate/professional) to make the numbers work in our favor! (That doesn’t explain Philly though–no offence.)
