• Must the TTC try to compete with Uber, and how? I wonder if the comparison between the two even makes sense. The Toronto Star reports.


• blogTO notes that beloved Toronto bookstore Eliot's is closing, with a fantastic sale. I think I will be making at least one visit there.


• John Lorinc at Spacing notes that Sidewalk Labs' negotiations with regards to Quayside have hit some problems.


• Toronto Life shares some of teenage photographer Lia Denbok's stunning photos of homeless people in the city.


• MacLean's has a brief article/a> sharing the suggestion of novelist Michael Redhill, author of Giller-winning Bellevue Square, that Torontonian authors have come of age in being able to deal with their city.
