How new media helps social media make hyper local content cheaper


I had the privilege of being invited to Webmaster Radio to speak on SEM Synergy Hosted by Bruce Clay, president and founder of the international SEO and SEM company Bruce Clay, Inc. I was interviewed
by Virginia, an Associate Writer and director of the radio show. Also had Ben Saren as a guest who is an Online media entrepreneur and CEO of CitySquares.com. We began talking about the new buzz about hyperlocal content. Which as Ben Saren says "Has actually been around for over 100 years." Ever since the days of the newspapers." Everyone wants Hyper Local news going on in there local neighborhoods. It's not just about the main city in question anymore, it's about the towns and neighborhoods. Now with the new media age anyone can become a HyperLocal Blogger in their local city by using photo and video cameras, audio recorders, and blogs.

eLocal Listing's Martin Canchola meets Chamillionaire at TechCrunch50 2009!

TechCrunch50 was probably the biggest event I have been to yet! The amount of companies there was astounding! I had the privilege of meeting one of the biggest Hip Hop superstars there, Chamillionaire! Don't be quick to judge, Chamillionaire has some deep insights when it comes to social media and web 2.0! He was on the judges panel for reviewing the startups at TechCrunch50 in San Francisco.
