An Invitation to our Cos Cob Community: BLOG ON!

Since this site is all about Cos Cob, we’d like to get the unique perspectives of local bloggers. If you’ve been blogging, great – send your name, email and a link to your blog to us at CosCobRoundup@gmail.com - we would love to check it out and possibly feature it on our Cos Cob site.

If you’ve never blogged, but think you’d like to give it a shot and share your views on what’s happening in the community, we'd like to help you get started. [For the record, “blog” is short for “weblog” which is kinda like an online journal]. Let us know what would make entering the blogosphere easy and stress-free for you and we’ll do our best to make it happen.

Point is, this site runs on the input, insights and inspiration from folks like you. We’d like to hear what you have to say – and so would others in Cos Cob. So blog on!
