This Urban Life blog is kept by Rev. Kathryn Ransdell. UrbanLife is a ministry of First Church Methodist Church, Downtown Dallas. The goal of the ministry is to connect 20- and 30-year-olds with each other, their faith, and the church. http://urbanlife-firstchurch.blogspot.com/2008/09/urbanlife-in-september.html






In this blog this individual is speaking about his conspiracy theory with smart phones. He has taken observations to peoples actions when it comes to being on them and being around them. In our Urban Studies Class in Hunter College we have also taken observations to peoples actions when in public. http://creativespark.wordpress.com/2010/05/04/why-do-they-call-them-smart-phones/





This blogger is discussing the Atlantic Yards dilemma. My group specifically argued ths topic when we had our in class debate. It was interesting to see the pictures this person put up to compare to the knowledge i have of it post debate. http://onlytheblogknowsbrooklyn.com/2010/05/03/bklyn-bloggage-civics-5/#respond





This urban life blog is a guy comparying urban to rural life. Towards the beginning of the semester, we tried to find the differences between the two as well by making lists of what each have. We realized they both have the same things. After living both types of lifestyles, this blogger decided life is better rural. http://www.thehimalayantimes.com/blog_index1.php?keyword=Urban+versus+rural+life&blogtab=4&blogid=3371&condition=readmore&page_r=5&title=VXJiYW4gdmVyc3VzIHJ1cmFsIGxpZmU=&archval=&year






This blog was on a page with other students, like us who did activities similar to what we did. This specific blog the did some sort of 'experiment' where thye knocked on almost every door in a neighborhood and in a way evaluated the house by interviewing the people who aswered the door. This reminds me of when we evaluate how people act but more from afar and watching rather than up close and speaking to. http://www.catlin.edu/blog/medforde/door-knocking-with-ecotone
