Who reads these, anyway? What is it that makes us so passionate about ourselves and our community?

I started in May 2006 because I didn’t know what a Blog was, and Trent Blizzard at http://www.blizzardinternet.com told me it would be good for business. (He was right, it is).

By the way, we are…

Curt and Toni Feldmann
We live and love here in the StoryBook Village. And we run the Skaneateles Suites
Finger Lakes Lodging in Skaneateles, New York
which is a collection of places to stay. Boutique Hotel, Skaneateles Suites, apartments and Dockside Vacation Rentals.
(Need a Place to Stay? Visit us at www.skaneatelessuites.com and rent something) More importantly, this is the story of our StoryBook Village, albeit slightly irreverent. You can read more at http://skaneatelessuites.blogspot.com/ You will also have to wade thru some blatant self-promotion to get to the “good stuff”.

Then I learned how to set “alerts” and found http://kihm.wordpress.com,

which is a MUST read about “litter in Skaneateles” from Kihn Winship, who in his own words says:

Kihm Winship lives, works, walks and writes in Skaneateles, New York, a village in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. A copywriter for the past 28 years, he is also published in newspapers and magazines, including All About Beer, Zymurgy, Log Home Living and Urban Dog. He is the author of Adirondack Run with illustrator Scott Ouderkirk.

You can find his longer pieces at www.faithfulreaders.com.

And now, Cary Briel at www.brielcomputer.com

(to whom we send lots of checks, but rarely talk to in person, seems we have an electronic relationship) has created yet another fanciful, and in the grand scheme of things, un-necessary Blog about “things in Skaneateles”.

I don’t know why we do these things, I am just glad we do.

From a technical standpoint, blogs are great because they are currently the ‘loophole’ to getting content into the search engine results, with entries often appearing within hours! Sure beats waiting for months for your content to be crawled and indexed the ‘old-fashioned’ way.

Yeah, yeah. But reading about ourselves is also just fun.

Think so too.. Especially locally as you suggest. Does anyone even remember what a newspaper is anymore? Which is fine by me, saving trees too.
