Another Capital City Market Site

I found this through a Technorati search:
This guy Josh Williams has an interesting interactive feature (including one video and a couple of audio slide shows) about the Capital City Market.
By the way, according to this site, my count of individual vendors in the actual DC Farmers Market is off. I guessed 30-40. This site says 50 (which I think is probably right, but not all of the stands sell food, and a few are restaurant stands, which I wasn't counting).

Did people look at the site? I thought it was quite good (not only as a student effort). I do realize that the slideshow/videos make take a second, but they are truly worth a look. What do you think?

I looked at it. I thought it was well put-together, but I would have liked it more if there'd been more of the A/V stuff from vendors, and especially some audio or video from places other Litteri or Farmer's Market vendors.

Thanks for the link to my little project. I wanted to put more A/V features in the project but each piece takes quite a while and I was up against my class deadline. If someone had an interest in creating content – either A/V or more/better information in the little info boxes, I wouldn’t be opposed to adding them to the site.

i thought it was very well put together. this kind of thing would be great to have in the WaPo.

it's interesting that most of the market related items focus on the past and the present.

i guess that's because it's sort of hard to focus on an uncertain future, and that piece highlighted that.
