The Philadelphia News Blogs: Letting You Know About Cool Planned Events When it's Too Late

The one thing that always irritate me about the local news blogs is when they inform you of something cool only when it's too late to do anything about it. Not so much concerts by indie bands you never heard of (CSS, anyone?), but local events that you would actually be interested in if you knew about it.

Case in point? The Philadelphia Independent Craft Market is going to be this weekend.

It would have been great to be told about this, say, a month ago when I could have gotten my cash together, bought a spot, and determined what to sell. It would have been simply perfect! But, no, it's about 4 days before the event and getting a spot doesn't exactly seem like a good idea now.

Thanks local blogs! Thanks a lot.
