Similar online groups for surrounding communities?

So, I love DSLJ, but what are similar online groups to Davis_Square but for other towns around Boston?

I know about b0st0n on LJ, of course, and /r/boston on reddit. There's the Porter Square Neighborhood association mailing list, which is largely development focused. 

And so far I've found these:

Newton Parents

Arlington List

Lexington List
JP Moms

Ron told me about Medford List.  Know of any others? Weston? Wellesley? Quincy

I can only speak for my own (Powderhouse - which is oddly named because it spans all the way down to Benton & Summer), which is still fairly quiet, but I've been seeing a little increase in users and activity in the past couple of weeks, so it may start to pick up. I hope that it does - seems like a good neighborhood resource.

Thanks. How can I see a map of all the NextDoor 'neighborhoods' ? Never mind, found the Somerville map here.
