However, it seems to me that this blog needs to change gears (as I need to change gears). I have stopped working the pushcart (at least for the time being) and therefore my 'net-time is taking on a different complexion.

Therefore, my new initiative for 2007 is this: to try to open up New Cities/New Soviets from being a place for largely solitary meditations to becoming a node of conversation. To use it as vehicle rather than recepticle.

Who do I want to talk to? Mostly, to people my own age (29) and somewhat younger. (Not necessarily exclusively, but those are the people I'm most interested in contacting). And especially, people involved in labor activism.
