Today’s
\n Sam
\n Allis column<\/a> in the Globe <\/a>opens with a maudlin and meandering discourse
\n on the changing meaning of the word "neighborhood". Finally, by the seventh
\n paragraph, he gets to the point:<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Makers last Sunday morning at Sweet Finnish, a bakery in Jamaica Plain.<\/p>\n
\n the idea of assembling video bloggers on a regular basis to palaver about
\n their passion. Michael Oh, the WiFi wizard from Tech Superpowers, was
\n also on hand to field technical questions.<\/p>\n
\n one of the better writers over at the Boston Globe. He goes on to profile
\n old buddy and uber-vlogger Steve Garfield<\/a> who
\n has been organizing meetups of vloggers, wannabe vloggers and just
\n plain weird, cinemagraphic people for
\n a while now. Sam, meanwhile, has had his journalistic spider-sense
\n tingling for a while. He knows there is something happening here,
\n but what it is ain’t exactly clear. Give the guy points for trying to figure
\n it out.<\/em><\/p>\n
