Once again, the future of journalism...

...is blogging:

Daniel Cavanagh (above), a computer consultant who was born and raised in Gerritsen Beach (Brooklyn), started his blog in 2006 because his neighborhood — population about 5,000 — was rarely in the newspapers. So he started covering local meetings, photographing events and running to crime scenes.

Now you may not care about Gerritsen Beach, but Mr. Cavanagh’s site "typically gets 900 or so page views a day and [has] earned him the title of 'Vigilante Blogger' from Gawker."
