I take it back
And by "it," I mean most of what I said about The Bigger Picture. I had a gut reaction based on outdated information and a homepage that I didn't care for.
I've since subscribed to the Bigger Picture and it's quickly becoming one of the blogs that I most look forward to reading. The integration of photographs with posts on all topics keeps it lively and interesting. There's some humor and lots of history.
So.. my bad.
