Hi, Matt. We just launched our hyperlocal site, MyBackyard, currently for the Coastal North Carolina area but with plans to expand. It’s a little different from most, we think, in that it focuses a bit more on a deep layer of data while still incorporating news and blogs. So, we’re able to tell you what’s going on in your neighborhood (crimes to real estate transactions) but also give you an idea of what your neighborhood is like: from political affiliation to popular pet names. Really.
