From time to time, I use this space to point out a particular satellite of the blogosphere which has recently caught my attention... For the last several months (maybe even a year or so now), I've been particularly captivated by a site called The Big Picture -- which describes itself as follows:
...The Big Picture is a photo blog for the Boston Globe/boston.com, entries are posted every Monday, Wednesday and Friday by Alan Taylor. Inspired by publications like Life Magazine (of old), National Geographic, and online experiences like MSNBC.com's Picture Stories galleries and Brian Storm's MediaStorm, The Big Picture is intended to highlight high-quality, amazing imagery - with a focus on current events, lesser-known stories and, well, just about anything that comes across the wire that looks really interesting. ...
Whether you're into photography, current events, or just plain good (visual) story-telling, this site has a lot to offer. Certainly worth a recommendation.
