While searching online for some information about London, I came across The London Portal by Wikipedia. It looks one of the most robust information portals about London.
The portal contains more information than could be summed in a blog post, information that surrounds most of every aspect that concerns the capital.
Culture | Economy | Geography | Government | History | Infrastructure | Politics | Sport | Tourism
These are just the head menu items. and I may use Walter Besant's quote:
I've been walking about London for the last thirty years, and I find something fresh in it every day. 
I'd bet new information about London can be found via this portal every day.
Happy New Weekend!

CCTV helps spot illegal parking
|
Getting a ticket in Westminster can cost up to £100 | Motorists parking illegally in central London could now be caught using hi-tech CCTV cameras.
Drivers contravening parking laws, in areas like the West End, will be pictured and then sent a fine through the post. |
Another way of getting money from law-disobeying citizens?
Is this a mere continuation of a the industrial revolution? There is a story in our history where the machine took over people's jobs. At that time it was probably inevitable, is this also the case over here?
