A note on hyperlocal content

Submitted by enpen on Tue, 03/18/2008 - 9:22am.

This is just a note in case anybody has questions about the recent change of focus to a more hyperlocal model than OlyBlog has been: we are not encouraging a vacuum of national and international content on OlyBlog, rather, we would like people to do a little legwork on the matter and tie such content into hyperlocal matters.

Did you recently watch a movie you want to share with everybody? Excellent. Please tell us if we can get it at the Library, or Rainy Day, etc. A recipe? Where can we find the ingredients? We want to encourage the development of OlyBlog as a place to tie our community together.
