SF Chronicle Unveils New Look
We just got word about something cool. Well, cool insofar as local politics is cool, which? Not so much. But for those of you confused by who is up for what in which district, Rich Bartlebaugh sent us info on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors candidate Google Video Map. Don't know who to vote for? This will help you out.
Basically, it points out who is running for supervisor in which district (i.e., 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, and 11), gives us their addresses (D1's Nicolas Belloni, D4's David Ferguson, and D9's Eric Storey wouldn't reveal their addresses, so they're stuck out at sea), and links to said candidate's YouTube pick-me-please video.
We recommend you voting for the most telegenic one. Have at it, voters.

Where is Ross?
Julian Lagos, you had me at 'hello'.
No, it's correct. Eric Storey and David Ferguson are out to sea.
No Ed Jew?
district 9 has someone on a boat?
Ross Mirkarimi is definitely missing!
That is pretty cool. Kudos to the site designer.
Ross Mirkarimi didn't make an SFGTV video for the League of Women Voters (that's where these videos came from).
The other four non-participants:
D1 - Sherman D'Silva,
D3 - Mark Quessey,
D5 - Rob Anderson,
D11 - Adrian Bermudez.
Apparently, some of the addresses mapped belong to the candidate's campaign offices and not their homes. So for coolness -- a little bit but not a lot bit.
