Anyone seen the mayor’s shiny new website?

It looks like someone in the mayor’s office is trying to move beyond the stale, hard to use, fugly Richmond City website template. Blogs, news, and videos — what more could you want. I wonder if the mayor plans to actually write any of the blog content.

It’ll be interesting to follow.

Ross loves his family, Richmond, and beer (in that order). He is the master and commander of the good ship RVANews. Occasionally he takes a picture or two.

   Let’s see Wilder on the RVAblogs’ blogroll. Let’s get Goldman’s and other candidates’ blogs on there also.

   Wilder’s flip flop on the VaPAF/Center Stage/downtown arts center deal should be thrown in his face every chance given. Its going to cost Richmond taxpayers for generations to come.

   OK, that just answered the most burning question in Richmond. That’s not the kind of website you put up in the twilight months of your office.

   He will be running for re-election. Mark it. Looking at the current field, he will probably win, too.

   I’ll email the candidates if I can find contact information for them. I can’t add a person’s blog to RVABlogs unless I get their permission.

   But I’ll see what I can do.

   The incorrect use of title case on that site hurts my soul.
