Place Bloggers on the Radio

Numenius and I just got back from Point Reyes where, together with Lisa from Field Notes and Chris from Creek Running North, we were interviewed on KWMR (a community radio station for west Marin County) about Blogs of Place. I daresay this is the first radio show in the world to feature place blogs. I have no idea how many people heard the show, which will be repeated on Thursday—or whether any of them knew what a weblog was. We are going to get hold of a tape and try and make it available as an audio file somehow.

The main topics we discussed were how the Web, not a place, is enabling a redefinition of place; about nature and place versus urban place; and about children and their sense of the landscape. It was a wonderful conversation which we four continued over dinner, and now it’s late—I’m turning into a pumpkin.
