Title: Brooklyn Heights Blog

URL: http://brooklynheightsblog.com

Description: Brooklynheightsblog is the brainchild of Homer Fink, known for his irreverent blog The Fink File. Feeling the pangs of “civic duty” he decided to fill a gap in the blog world (“Feh with that ‘blogosphere’ word,” he says) by compiling and covering events in Brooklyn Heights. Homer Fink is such a great name it’s probably made up. Well in this case it sure is! The moniker is the “nom de blog” of media executive John Loscalzo.
