Whose Florida? a site linked to here, has consistantly had a useful digest of Florida news and opinion stories. Most Florida newspapers bury their Legislative coverage both in their print editions and Web sites, (I defy anyone to find a Legislature story in less than five clicks at any Knight Ridder site) but whoseflorida.com exumes the links for policy wonks and Floridians who need their minimum daily requirement of outrage.
Like a lot of people, these folks are down about the election and are wondering what to do next and whether it's worth the work. And what good does do it anyway? And to be or not to be?
Send them a note telling them buck up, tomorrow's another day, and for heaven's sake, redesign the site. (It's so 1999. Lose the blue background.) Without the Whosers, the field of Florida news digest sites would be left to the Jebcentric agitprop site Sayfie Review, which is not just ugly, it's Drudge-Report ugly. (But dammit, I use it for the lists.)
