The story of the blog name

From Wikipedia let's look at the definition of Muhtar first:

Muhtar is the elected village head in villages of Turkey. In cities, likewise, each quarter has a muhtar, but with a slightly different status. In each village, muhtar is the highest civil servant of the village.

When I decided to have the blog, a friend of mine told me to use my nick name "muhtar", not because I am elected or anything but mostly because of the information that I was providing about the city I live in, from schedules to subway transportation, concerts to upcoming Broadway Shows.

In short; I feel I am serving the village that I now call home.
