Boston Home Improvement Blog

Cool products that make your home just work better. Home improvement tips. Boston gossip. Read what our Boston-area blogger has to say about home improvement and home-related issues ranging from cool chic to prison upholsterers to walkability to sports-yes, sports! Can't have a Boston blog that doesn't mention sports (or coffee, but I digress...).

It's 61 degrees in Boston today


It's 61 degrees in Boston today, and 53 here in metroWest Boston, as you can see. Yes, we actually own and display that clock/thermometer, thanks to my brother-in-law, whose toddler is getting an electronic drum set from us next year.

This has nothing to do with home improvement, home-related retailers, DIY Gone Wrong, or anything connected to the HomeStars community.

I just enjoy saying that it's 61 degrees on March 4 in the Boston area. How often can you say that?

It's almost enough to make you think about landscaping, isn't it? There are still a good six inches of snow on the ground here in metroWest Boston, but the steady drip of melting snow from the roof makes me think about whether my gutters are clean, what flowers to plant, and whether we should have found a set of cheap airline tickets and flown down to Ft. Myers to watch Red Sox spring training after all.

For this first post of the Boston Home Improvement Blog on HomeStars, let me ask you to do four things:

1. Register at http://www.homestars.com and write a review of a Boston-area business. You don't want New York to have more reviews than Boston, do you...?

2. While you're at it, Tell a Friend about HomeStars. Grow your neighborhood. Our current Boston users tend to cluster in the South End and metroWest Boston.

3. Bookmark this page (or subscribe via RSS).

4. Check back every day. You never know what you might find. What does coffee have to do with fireplaces? Are you a "Rotten Neighbor"? How walkable is your neighborhood?

Come back and learn more.
