  • ABOUT SAVANNAH UNPLUGGED
    In my columns in the Savannah Morning News, I write about the local economy and culture. But those columns don't exist in a vacuum: I follow a wide variety of national news and experience Savannah much more deeply than I can possibly capture in three columns a week. So here on Savannah Unplugged, you'll find everything from nationwide economic trends to nightclub photos.

    If you're just looking for pictures, check out Bill Dawers Photography on tumblr.
