SFDB Post Of The Week

SFDB selects its Post of the Week by going back and reviewing all the Sifts that we've done over the past 7 days. We find the best post of the week and note the runners ups as we judge them to be.

This past week brought us some unique posts in the South Florida blogosphere. It was fun going through them again and deciding which one was the best. Here are my choices.

Runners-Up: A trip to the DMV in Little Havana to renew his driver license provided for some entertaining reading in More Blog About Buildings and Food's Day Trip To The Little Havana DMV. Sweat Records did an excellent job with a post that wrapped up Swetastock with a number of videos and links. And Some Blogging Guy photographed the birth of a monarch butterfly in a unique post called Monarch Birth that drew some comments.

Winner: This past week we dreaded lamented totally forgot about recognized the 10th anniversary of the The Day Elian Gonzalez Became A Martyr. Political commentary aside, Miami Beach 411, employed the services of photographer Bill Cooke, he of Random Pixels, and posted a great summary of the story from the perspective of a photographer who was assigned to cover the controversial drama that unfolded in Little Havana. The Elian Gonzalez Story: 10 Years Later is an interesting retelling of the events that is loaded with photos and insight from someone who lived the story, day in and day out, for 4 months. You don't find this kind of stuff floating around in the South Florida blogosphere very often and when you do, you can be sure it's going to get that week's SFDB Post of the Week. Congrats to Miami Beach 411 and Bill for a job well done.

'Til next time, people, keep on blogging!
