Neighborhood Blogging

An idea that occurred to me during BloggerCon III was organizing the neighbors in my housing sub-division with a blog. Since in Silicon Valley, most homes have two working parents (especially if you somehow managed to buy a house!) and people work odd hours so it's very difficult to get to know people in anything but a superficial way (in the past, I rented and never really got to know any of my neigbours). This becomes problematic if you need to organize your neighbors for a community related project (for example, I'd like to have a stop sign added to my neighborhood). So I set up a blog for this and that's about as far as I got with it. However now I have a little more free time, I'm hoping to put a flyers on peoples doors with the blog location and see if anyone shows up. I've never used blogger for a multi person blog so we'll see how it goes.
