Blogging Roller

Placeblogger is a new blog and aggregation site that's all about local blogging from Lisa Williams and friends. It's powered by Bryte, which is based on the Drupal content management system and offers blogs, feed aggregations, photo galleries and polls.

You can help build the database by submitting your favorite place blogs. The database supports a number of different "blog types." You can add aggregations, so Joe's local planets would be suitable, and you can add community sites so Orange Politics would fit right in too. I submitted Raleighing.
