Local pundit, videographer and cartoonist extraordinaire Mike Marketti, has launched a new website.

The site, titled Southbridge Common, styles itself as an alternative source of news for Southbridge.

The initial offerings include a report on the efforts by James Sottile to secure an alternate position on the Liquor Licensing Board, a humorous take on the recent Town Council recognition of Rudy DiGregorio and a summary of the Town Council Chairman’s reaction to a citizen’s petition seeking a return to a town meeting form of government. 

Welcome SlowTowny

Recently I lamented the demise of what was once an active Southbridge blog culture.

It is therefore with no small amount of pleasure that I want to bring to your attention a new local blog. 

I encourage you to visit SlowTowny and to also check out their FaceBook page.

Hey Southbridge - Wanna Blog? Classic Site Available

Banned, blamed and belittled by some Speak Out Southbridge was for years the dominant public forum in Southbridge.

Creator and author of Speak Out Southbridge, Dennis Martinek has decided that his tenure in that role has come to its end.

Despite having discontinued actively blogging several months ago, the site still receives numerous hits from internet search engines.
