Attention Florida bloggers
Sun Feb 20, 2005 09:31 (UTC -5)Is anyone interested in creating/joining a South Florida bloggers directory? It would be a listing of bloggers sorted by county; in the least, we could have Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade (“South Florida”), and I guess the Treasure Coast, Southwest Florida (Naples/Ft. Myers area), and the Keys wouldn’t be out of the question, either.
Edit Sun Feb 20, 2005 10:19 EST: On second thought, covering the whole state of Florida wouldn’t be a bad idea. There would certainly be more support for the idea to get off the ground. But the main reason is that I’m going to college in-state in a few years, and I don’t want to have to leave the directory if it’s only for southern Florida. Gee, I’m selfish. Anyway, the site could be organized by region rather than county (there are 67 counties, after all).
Post a comment if you’re interested in this.
Such an endeavor would probably require having a database, but I don’t have any real experience with that. (WordPress runs on PHP and MySQL, so I’ve set up a process and a database, at least.) If others are interested, I’d be willing to get a domain and do the front-end design (i.e., not the database stuff). San Francisco Bay Area Webloggers seems to be a good model of the sort of thing I’m talking about.

Sure, I’d be open to being a part of that sort of thing.

I’m probably too late or missing the link to florida bloggers on your site, so if this is still in the works, I’m interested.
Thanks!
