Welcome to the blog.

Hello, my name is Josh Sidorowicz...and I am a blogoholic.

Helloooo Josh.


When I started blogging last February I didn't really understand the draw or appreciate the utility of a blog. In the nearly nine months since I wrote my first blog post I've come to understand the world of blogging and I've marveled at how it has specifically impacted the city of Detroit. The world of online social media has allowed for new era of innovation and ideas to take hold in a city so desperately in need of direction and optimism.

Blogging about Detroit has allowed me to network and connect with other like-minded people in a way I never dreamed of. There is a whole community of passionate, dedicated, forward-thinking Detroit lovers out there that have found a way to come together and inspire a movement, started online, that has permeated into the streets of the city through entrepreneurial efforts and volunteerism. It has truly been a thrill to watch and be a part of.

But alas, the hot summer air has left us and the trees are now bare, and I find myself back in the green and white boundaries of East Lansing, because after all jdetroit also needs his edumication (*cough*cough hence the blog title...clever right?!? alright at least humor me a little). For the next few months, I'll once again have to blog from a 100-mile distance.

And with that spiel , welcome to the official blog for Josh's JRN 200 musings.  I can't promise that your time here on this blog will be worthwhile and/or amusing but I will gladly redirect you over to jdetroit.com, a blog that I have, no doubt, poured my heart and soul into (not really thought, I do actually have other hobbies).
