What’s the curse of volunteer organizations? For every stand-up guy or gal who steps up to pick up the slack, there is a cadre of slackers standing down, standing around, circling in inaction until they wear a hole in the ground.
This is a signal defect of Rain City Guide, arguably the best of the real estate weblogs. Blogger-in-Chief Dustin Luther has assembled a fantastic team of writers. But it seems, too often, that the team is happy enough to let Ardell DellaLoggia or Dustin himself carry the ball.
When the others are there, they’re all the way there. But I wish they were there more often. No one can tell volunteers when they have or have not done enough, but, as much as I like RCG, I like it best when all of the contributors on the masthead are making prominent contributions.
That criticism aside, RCG is first-rate in every way: Nicely-presented in WordPress, finely-tuned and very, very active.

One good thing about RCG is they always have a team to debate the post and get the comment ball rolling. It’s like throwing the first punch to start a riot.

Thanks for the flattering words, Greg. I think some of us don’t have your and Ardell’s knack for shooting off posts.
