2008: The Year in Preview

Tis the season for reflection: TV reruns and flashback episodes fill the airwaves, magazines print retrospective pieces, and news outlets clamor to serve up inexpensive-to-produce "year in review" and "best of 2007" specials.

At imnotsayin, we strive to be different. And given the looming likelihood of a blog-writers strike in 2008, we thought it would be prescient to get the whole upcoming year written and in the can now, instead of waiting for the stories to happen.

And so between now and year's end, we offer to you, Brooklyn, our first annual Year in Preview special. We're calling it "2008: Brooklyn's Year in Preview".

Enjoy!
