Day Without Foodblogs

Posted by Adam Kuban, May 16, 2006 at 2:29 PM

Reading Chez Pim today, I came across some alarming info:

One of the Internet's great strengths is that a single blogger or a small political group can inexpensively create a Web page that is just as accessible to the world as Microsoft's home page. But this democratic Internet would be in danger if the companies that deliver Internet service changed the rules so that Web sites that pay them money would be easily accessible, while little-guy sites would be harder to access, and slower to navigate.

So, I'll participate in Pim's Day Without Foodblogs

While I agree that NYC and NJ is home to the best pizzerias in the world I would object to the notion that the average pizza joint here is better than other places. In many instances, average nyc pizza is terrible. When i lived in queens I was shocked at how much sub-par pie I was getting. Same in mnhattan. Brooklyn's a bit better. I'm now in jersey city and on the hunt for some good pizza there. Any suggestions welcome.
