What’s Up Yukon’s piece about Urban Yukon is now online.
You can read it here, and of course also in the print edition. Now I need to get cracking on the companion article about blogging in general. I’ve already received a number of suggestions from UY members, but if you have more, please pass ‘em along.

Keep your eyes peeled for an Urban Yukon article in What’s Up Yukon.
I first want to thank everyone that took the time to tell me what they thought of Urban Yukon and how it may have affected their blogging.
I’ve submitted the article, which will be called something like “Yukon Bloggers Unite!” Apparently, my suggestion, “Yadda Yadda Yadda Blog Blog Blog”, wasn’t deemed sufficiently specific. I think it will appear in the January 20th issue.
I did quote a few of you in the piece, but I didn’t have space to mention everyone. Fortunately, I may get a second chance by writing another general blogging article for a future issue.

How has Urban Yukon affected your blogging? “What’s Up Yukon” wants to know.
I’ve been asked to write a small piece about Urban Yukon for What’s Up Yukon, Yukon (the sentence just felt like it needed three territories). I’d like to include the opinion of some fellow bloggers on what Urban Yukon has meant to them and their writing. Has it pushed you to write more often? Has it introduced you to interesting people and new friends? Have you completely ignored it since signing up that one regrettable drunken evening?
Of course, the deadline for my piece is the morning of Monday, January the 10th, so anything you could send me by the weekend would be most appreciated. Just leave a comment here, or write to me directly at urbanyukon@yukondude.com.
If all goes well, I may be asked to write another about blogging in general, so any ideas you have on that topic are also most welcome.

There’s now a mobile-friendly version of the Urban Yukon blog.
Just visit this blog using your favourite mobile thingamajig. Unfortunately, the main site remains decidedly mobile-unfriendly, but there’ll be a fix for that eventually:
