Hyperlocal News Roundup
by Matt McGee on Sep 19, 2010 in Industry
This is the MEGA edition of the hyperlocal news roundup — 20+ links below that should include something of interest to most anyone. This is what happens when you combine cross-country travel with getting sick as soon as you get home. Ugh. That’s how I’ve spent the past 8-10 days. Hope yours have been better.
Of particular note in the list is the journalist’s guide to jobs at Patch, which I found a pretty interesting read.
