Hyperlocal News Roundup
by Matt on Aug 1, 2010 in Industry
Another good batch of articles below. In particular, check out the Talk About Local piece (by Nicky Getgood) on using platforms other than WordPress to create a hyperlocal blog/site. That’s a topic I’m particularly interested in, and there are several links/videos in Nicky’s piece that I want to spend more time investigating.
We’ve run a guest post before about using a Wiki for your hyperlocal site, and if any readers have experience using the platforms mentions in Nicky’s article — or any other platform — I’d love to run a guest article about it. Email me.
