On June 16, 2004, Metroblogging San Francisco saw its first posts go live - and a blog was born. Part of the Metroblogging family, Metroblogging SF has weathered friendly and unfriendly fire, a nasty burrito war, a fire fire storm, and a near fantastic buy-out by Yahoo. Along the way, we’ve used the “I’ve got to blog” excuse to sample some of the city’s finest eats and shared our reviews - checked out musical acts, shows, events, neighborhoods, and even found secret urban playgrounds.

For fans and critics, remember, we’re always looking for interested - and interesting - writers to join the team. Check out the application if you’re curious.

And remember - we’re just part of an effort to Think Global, Blog Local. If you haven’t meandered around the world via the other Metroblogging sites - check ‘em out - either via the list in the left-hand toolbar, or just click “Random City” in the top right, and see where you land.

Metroblogging finds the best of the world-in-blogs and puts it all in one convenient place for you - just check out Metroblogging’s Best Of for the best and brightest posts from our crack team of world bloggers. You never know what you’ll find . . . .
