The Triangle vs. the Triad

First we lost Mark Pilgrim, and now apparently Greensboro is the blog capital of North Carolina.

How can Greensboro, often described as "Raleigh without the PhD's" be this onto the scene, while myself, 50K other geeks at RTP tech companies, and umpteen thousands of NCSU, UNC, and Duke college students sit by idly? Whenever I'm there and surrounded by locals and not lawyers, I expect a spontaneous NASCAR race to materialize. If that town can get together and make peoples lives better through improved communication, imagine what would happen if a real city got motivated? It boggles the mind.

All that said, there are one or two redeeming qualities about Greensboro.
