Hyperlocal … 5 Years from Now
by Matt on Mar 16, 2009 in Industry
“Five years from now, if someone gets mugged within a half-mile of my house, and I don’t get an e-mail alert about it within half an hour, it’ll be a sign that something is broken.”
That’s a quote from Outside.in founder Steven Johnson, speaking Friday at SXSWi. This CNET article has a lot more from his talk, including a reference by the CNET author that I could do without in paragraph three to “…amateur bloggers posting news items obsessively and continuously.” (We get no respect in some quarters.)
That’s also a good roadmap for hyperlocal bloggers everywhere. It’s something the best should be striving to make happen in our own communities.
