It has been noted that Slate doesn't have the greatest art coverage, most recently here.
I would like to see Slate feature or link to a different city's artblog every week. There are so many they could do this for six months easily. A few that come to mind -
Atlanta
Austin
Boston
Chicago
Las Vegas
Los Angeles
Miami
Montreal
New York
Philadelphia
Pittsburgh
Portland
Richmond - that's me!
Rochester
San Francisco
San Pedro
Seattle
Toronto
Washington DC
All of the artblogs would get tons of new readers and Slate would have art coverage every day - it's win-win!
Artnet or Artforum.com might want to consider this also.
I like your idea. I used to stop by Slate, look for art. Now I don't stop by, since they don't really have it...
