Hot Member: Derami

Kurt contributes to one of the most entertaining sites I've had the privilege to spotlight here.  Web Urbanist is a feast for those who are fascinated by surroundings. 

One question at Web Urbanist drew me in from the most recent post:

Have you ever been drawn to the calm beauty of abandoned buildings, or even tempted to explore forbidden structures in the urban landscape?

Who hasn't?  I know that my being a history nerd made me really love this site, but even those of you who don't have an interest in The Troubles or the homeless may find this site intriguing because of posts that show off street art and favorite images from Stumbleupon.  The site is a visual feast.

Go check out Kurt's profile, Derami, and view both of his communities, Web Urbanist and All Sux Dot Com.  We owe Kurt a huge round of gratitude for making the Wikipedia entry happen, and the least we can do it show off his great, great site.  Plus, he's kinda cute too ;)

Robyn I can't tell you how much I appreciate all your work and everything about MBL. Every interaction I have had with you, Eric and others has been overwhelmingly positive. I'm so glad you like my blogs too :)

I am 100% convinced that it is your dedication and hard work that has made MBL the best blogging community online. I don't think that 200,000 bloggers would have signed up if MBL were only about the great features and meeting bloggers ;)

Thanks again and thanks for the spotlight! MBL 4ever!

Excellent Wikipedia article and cool blogs - Allsux is pretty funny but Weburbanist has some cool images!

I'd like to sign up for his RSS feed, and this one but I'm not sure how. Could someone walk me through the steps?

Thanks!

Well, when it rains it pours! As some folks may have noticed, WebUrbanist has been running a bit slow (if at all) for the last 24 hours. Three articles in a row made the Digg.com front page - and the last one pushed our hosting over the edge! It should be running running again, barring any more huge influxes of traffic. Thanks for your patience, and my apologies to anyone who tried to but couldn't load the site so far!

Next step: better hosting ;)
