Need An Introduction to “Above The Fold”?


Somewhere along my daily perusing I came across a link that took me to “Above The Fold” – “Home Delivered Glances At Humboldt County.” I try to keep the list of local blogs on my websites current and pertinent. It seems I totally missed this blog.

Since this blog is about “Home delivered glances at Humboldt County” and this Report is certainly motivated by a long family history in Humboldt and adjacent counties one of the first things I looked for was a link. Alas, NO LINK.

Well, for whatever it's worth, I can see why I missed this blog for nearly a year. But I remedied that problem forthwith. The Humbug Network is certainly alive and well. Even better now with the latest Lost Coast Outpost blog and the addition of their “blogger dream team.”

For years now, since Google changed their search algorithms I received tons of emails asking me for reciprocating links. I guess these local bloggers' disdain for their fellow contemporaries never got the message. Either that, or they all believe, as I do, that “less is more.”

Anyway, an interesting blog. Not real sure that its “glances at Humboldt” aren't a bit skewed, though. But then, some would say the writer of this Report as a bit skewed. For sure, a good blog to put on your list.

P.S.  When I was doing my Labels, the "Above The Fold Blog" label came up, making me think that I wrote about this blog before. I check my blog listing and didn't see the name. So, disregard any previous posts.

Well, Hello There!

This is a brand new blog gracing the cyberwaves in Northern California. We'll touch on fun community events, politics, current newsworthy topics, local history, good people doing good things in our community and oddball kitsch.  Hmmm, sounds like a blog that used to kick around these parts back in the day.  This time, it's a duo with female and male perspectives.  Look out, it's sure to be quite colorful on occasion.  Thanks for checking us out!

The Editors
(No, we don't really have newspaper journalism backgrounds, but we find the premise fun for a blog.)


You can always tell one of these Humbuggers by the people they link up with as well as those that they do NOT link to. The complete list is over on the Humboldt Herald.

My Blog List


I'm not sure Heraldo's comment about Ross Rowley and Ms. Sterious: "Bookmark the link to find out whether brown bread, fake cheese and other questionable food-like items will play a role in Above the Fold" is an epithet or an epitaph. --- PS. Did you read any of the comments? Rather validates the "club," I'd say.
[UPDATE] To anyone that's interested, I let "Anonymous" comment on this blog. You want to use foul language, post an ID, Heraldo.

A new blog from far, far SoHum just came to my attention that deserves to be lumped into the group: "jendocino" - Take a look at her list of blogs and you can begin to see how this group comes together.
