Cranston’s Ward 2 Goes Online

Carroll Andrew Morse

Say hello to ward2.org, the latest entry into the Rhode Island blogosphere. Ward2.org is a blog based in the city of Cranston's second ward.

Elizabeth Seal has a short article in this week’s Cranston Herald about ward2.org and its principal founder (and Cranston City Council candidate and, most importantly, Anchor Rising reader), Mark Lucas...

As people start using the site, Lucas said his hope is that it becomes something of a throwback to the days of sitting on front porches and shooting the breeze. As people get busier, he said, neighborhoods get more disconnected. By creating a virtual “porch” of sorts, people can participate from wherever they are and stay informed and involved.
