Nice mix of high and low culture, micro and macro, and quirky without being too quirky. Hmm. Sounds like a winning formula.
Bldgblog is a great blog -- accessible, interactive, timely, chatty. Everything you'd want in a magazine, but more so. I'm always attracted by architectural magazines, but there's not much there beyond the pictures, and I'm always disappointed. This site is better than a magazine, and I'll be going back for more.
A few years ago, I heard someone argue that most books today ought to have been magazine articles instead. Maybe a corollary to that idea is that today, most magazines ought to be blogs.
See? If I won Powerball, I'd build a home based on a blueprint of a place on this site - it certainly wouldn't be a geodome or a replica of Mount Vernon.
