A community of 460,000

We like to talk about being the third-largest city in Pennsylvania on big event weekends, like football games. And Beaver Stadium alone qualifies on sold out Saturdays.

We're big in other ways, too, and you just have to take a look at our online community and see it.

In October, that community will top out at about 460,000 unique visitors to CentreDaily.com, one of our largest numbers for sure.

Thanks to all of you great Web readers, and double thanks to those who find our bustling blogs page. That's a community too, and new bloggers join virtually every week writing about different topics.

Enjoy these blogs and enjoy the paper and the Web site in coming days, as we continue with election story after election story and on Thursday we feature and eight-page voters guide.

I'm taking a few days off to go west, and I'll be reading online just like you.
