Welcome to Dakpig's Toronto, AKA Hogspot

I debated for a long time about what to call this blog. Various ideas presented themselves - Frugal Fun, Tightwad Toronto - but none of them seemed right. Probably in part because I wasn't sure what I wanted this site to be about. I knew I wanted to talk about the great stuff you can do for free in Toronto, but there's so much more to love about Toronto - what if I want to write about some of that? Then Steve suggested Hogspot and it seemed perfect. What does it mean? I don't know, but I like it. And I hope you'll like Hogspot too.

I expect the site will expand and evolve over time but for now I see it having 3 main elements:

*       The blog posts, which will largely focus on great free (or nearly free) stuff to do in Toronto
*       The What's On page, which is a daily list of events, either free or very reasonable
*       Where to Get Beer Cheap Today, which will be a list of regular specials at bars and restaurants in the city - and it will feature more than just beer

Please email me with tips, recommendations or comments and enjoy the site!
