A Great Blog Does Guidebooks

  • Posted by: Andrew Price

We’re big fans of PSFK the website, so we’ll be pretty excited to check out their new print book: PSFK Snapshot—San Francisco. The book presents their selection of what’s inspiring in the city, with “details of unique and innovative businesses, events, organizations and ideas.” We’re guessing this would be useful to visitors and residents alike.

To get a feel for the contents, check out this report on the Bay Area’s Ghetto Gourmet, a pirate dinner party community.

You can buy PSFK Snapshot—San Francisco here. “Snapshot” books coming for East London, Brooklyn and Hamburg.

    As I’m visiting SF this fall, I’ve got one of these books and it’s really quite good. Another find recently is the new Ecoescape handbooks that cover the UK and now France.

    I really like these alternative guidebooks, they provide a nice counterpoint to the mass market hysteria of the likes of Lonely Planet.

    I love PSFK’s work and am hoping they create a book for DC!

    I just recently moved to San Francisco. I’d be interested to take a look at this book.
