Re-Localization

ReadWriteWeb rekindles a post about from earlier this year which highlights the difference between traveller type apps (for a “stranger in a strange land”) vs. those meant to bring people together in their shared geography.

Re-localization is about locals. It is about people who like being in one place and interacting with neighbors.

As I’ve noted, there are more of us who “stay in” our geography than those who happen upon it. LBS needs to cater to the “stay at homes” in a different way.
