Earlier this week, Toronto Life killed off their blogs. The move was a surprising one, especially since the magazine was one of the few local print outlets that had finally started to figure out how to create interesting and original content online that was separate from but complimentary to what could be found in print.

Well, that didn't take long: Toronto Life has pulled the plug on Philip Preville's City State blog, on James Chatto's Chatto's Digest, and probably on Doug Bell's Spectator, too. Chatto was gone as of June 19, and today Preville wrote a post on City State that first read (in our RSS reader, at least) that "City State is being discontinued as of this post, as is its sister blog, Doug Bell’s wonderfully amusing Spectator, so go say your farewells over there, too"—but that now makes no mention of Spectator. Preville goes out with a plea for humour from our city and our mayor (and a slight dig at Spacing), a grumpy-guss complaint about construction on his street, and a plea for Kyle Rae to become mayor. Alright, then.
