Bugged

Reader Tony Platt sends this site from the UK created by Stephanie Dale and other writers.

He thought of it after reading Heather’s piece from the Summit.

The site, Tony writes, “invites stories (real and imagined) built on overheard information.”

Great idea and lots of interesting examples here at Bugged.

I’ve been a Mission resident since 1998 and a professor at Berkeley’s J-school since 1990. My earlier career was at The New York Times working for the business, foreign and city desks. As an old friend once pointed out, local has long been in my bones. My Master’s Project at Columbia, later published in New York Magazine, was on New York City’s experiment in community boards. Right now I'm trying to figure out how you make that long-held interest sustainable.
