The Fredösphere

Area blogger The Bunker has a roundup of Detroit blogs and websites.  He also has harsh words for the MSM's-eye-view of blogging.  I was a little confused by that, since if you follow the link to its end, you get a Mike Wendland column from the Detroit Free Press that doesn't have the negatives The Bunker says it has.  Indeed, its only offensive part is its failure to mention The Fredösphere.

Anyway, my real point:  The Bunker gives a nice list of Detroit photobloggers, which tend toward the "ruins" theme for some strange reason.  I've admired The Ruins of Detroit webpage for a long time and have had it on my blogroll (via The Detroit Page) since the beginning.  Strange, melancholy, beautiful, barkingly-ugly, priceless garbage.
