A former student of mine reminded me of one of the best websites in Thailand: 2bangkok.com. I used to read this site quite a bit, but it seemed like it wasn't updated any more. Well, now it is updated regularly and seems to be the best English-language source of news about Bangkok, especially news concerning transportation and infrastructure

The front page has a plethora of interesting stories, such as a link to a Forbes article showing PM Thaksin as the 6th richest head of state in the world (worth 1.6 billion dollars), summaries of the 400 billion baht (US$10 billion) plan for mass transit extensions in Bangkok, and a story about the 11,000+ websites that are now blocked in Thailand. Good stuff!
