A new community blog has sprouted in DuPont and it's full of insider insight with a hyperlocal - and edgy - approach.

realdupont.com is an attempt by its creator (who asked for anonymity) to serve as place for residents to share their voice. Here's how he told it to me via email:

It is my hope that by remaining anonymous that the site and forum content would be perceived to belong to the people in town. I also did not want to appear be pushing an agenda as I have no political or business aspirations in town, just opinions.

DuPont is a planned community but not everything has gone to plan. DuPont's growth since the Northwest Landing development has left the town searching for its own identity, an identity devoid of the platitudes of the developers and Realtors. In spite of this, DuPont
remains a desirable and interesting place to live.

The blog posts I sampled over the past couple weeks were pointed and the discussion was occasionally combative. It will take a while for the blog to find its audience. It's not for everyone, but that's what makes the web great.

By the way, what do you call someone from DuPont? A DuPontian? A DuPontite? A DuPer? Just wondering.
