And a local Portlander has opened a WP blog that aimsto become a Portland blogger aggregator (nothing personal, LT ... but you'd be right on there, bpaul):

Actually it's kind of exciting all of a suddent. We might get two levels of aggregator out of this: an umbrella level, which Silicon Florist is exploring, and a series of regional aggregators, represented by Alan Cordle's PorBlogs. I think it's great because the regionals can do a better job catering to thier core constituencies than an umbrella service can, though both have a valid place.
