250 Reasons to Promote Pittsburgh

I just stumbled across this LiveJournal blog: 250 Reasons to Promote Pittsburgh in its 250th year. The author describes herself as a stay-at-home mom and architect, and the entries are nicely written and illustrated. Some are usual suspects (Jan. 4: Primanti Bros.); some are not (Jan. 21: Overnight stay in a house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright).

This looks like a labor of love, rather than a marketing campaign. It's the kind of thing that could generate authentic interest in celebrating Pittsburgh's 250th birthday. Check it out.
