If you're looking to build a better city?

[dewline]

spacing_ottawa just announced an experiment you might be interested in: Spacington. Some of you SimCity players past and present may want to have a gander at it and report back about your impressions.

Also, I decided to Watch toronto starting this week, especially in the wake of the latest kerfuffles about Transit City having a halfway decent chance of a full-blown resurrection rather than mere "zombie" status at Toronto City Hall. For better views of the situation, you might want to keep an eye on both Spacing Toronto and the Toronto Star.

More on other stuff later in the day...
