So Bostonist was sitting on a stoop on Newbury Street yesterday afternoon, waiting for some coworkers who foolishly thought they could get to Upper Crust from Government Center faster on the T than we could on our bike.

We’re getting mixed messages in the blogosphere. It’s not uncommon, we’ll admit. Bostonist sat down with this week's edition of the Economist and read the whole section on “new media.” We felt like we might be part of that club in some way, but just laughed out loud when they made the comment “Want a debate?

Yep, they liked it, but it sounded fishy…we knew we’d heard something about that same place in the recent weeks. Indeed, Bridey at Diningoutboston.com, had a full review (delivery and dine-in) of how Upper Crust was good though not great earlier this month. Nice to know that the New Yorkers at Gridskipper have extended themselves enough to review a restaurant in Boston – especially a pizza joint – but Bostonist thought that from all the street cred they claim NYC might know more about pizza than Boston does. We may still life hack but we’re questioning whether or not to gridskip any longer.
