Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
One of Miami’s best known blogs is saying farewell. Critical Miami, New Times’ pick as Best Website of 2007, will no longer be updated but will remain live for those who still want to look through its archives. It’s sole blogger, Alesh Houdek says in his final post:
The truth is that I started this site because I thought there was a need for it, and today the need is well covered by dozens of excellent sites, from Covert Overt to Miami Art to TM and EoM, and they’re all held together by Rick’s daily grind. I just don’t have desire to keep up with it all anymore.
Arguably, the site was one of the city’s most popular blogs. However, Alesh isn’t abandoning the blogsphere completely. He is starting a new project, a less locally focused blog called More Blog About Buidlings and Food.
