Rebecca Burns writes a lively and informative blog on Atlanta called Terminus 2.0. Check it out here. She notes:

Is it paradoxical to blog about history? Maybe. But that’s the broadly conceived mission of Terminus 2.0.

Terminus is one of Atlanta’s previous monikers, bestowed in the 1800s when a railroad hub was planned for the locale that is now home to metro Atlanta.

Ms. Burns is interactive director of Atlanta magazine, and author of Rage in the Gate City: The Story of the 1906 Atlanta Race Riot (2006).

Her blogroll includes a link to thesga.org! Thanks, Ms. Burns!
