Blogs to show some Dot love

The ADORE-chester Project involves ten Dorchester bloggers who will show just how much they enjoy Dorchester on Sunday, Oct. 4, by simultaneously posting their own personal lists of what makes Dorchester special. Whalehead King, one of the organizers, says:

By writing ten top-five lists on the same day, the ADORE-chester! bloggers hope to flood their little corner of the internet with positive reviews of their neighborhood and, for a day at least, counteract the prevailing perception that Dorchester is a terror zone. It isn't, and their testimony is meant to provide subjective, contrary proof. Dorchester is very, very good, full of small pleasures and tangible benefits. The bloggers involved come from different backgrounds and each will express a unique point of view in order to capture as much of the neighborhood as they can with their writing. The reason they are linking together is to provide a kaleidoscope of viewpoints for people who may not appreciate the multi-faceted aspects this part of Boston offers.
