[Editor's note: peterme.com
began as a site of self-published essays, a la Stating
The Obvious. This evolved (or devolved) towards link lists and shorter
thoughtpieces. These essays are getting a tad old, but have some good

Caleb John Clark has posted "Space Available", a photo essay of San Francisco after the Web boom. It's a pleasant rumination on the state of this city, told with much affection by a former resident.

COMMENT #2
too bad caleb didn't mention what all of those buildings under construction mean: see-through years are ahead. see-throughs are vacant buildings that you can see through. the term was coined in houston's 1980s oil boom (and bust). also of note, for those of us who grew up in silicon valley: there is a general rule of thumb that any company that builds new offices is bound to have a major downfall soon after. it happened (long ago) to apple, borland, novell, and a few other now-dead companies. here we can now add organic, macromedia, listen.com, modem media, et al. funny how some things never change.
