Local Can Scale
If ALL of our local media shared an online delivery platform, where content was enhanced by geolocative technologies and wrapped in the context of some of our deepest connections, well that would be a pretty special place for local news to reside. Pretty much everyone can identify with the place they grew up. iGrewUpIn accesses that local identity. Letting consumer discover and share content from their hometown and where they live today. Geo-location defines the origin of content and spatial journalism brings trust back to online content. iGrewUpIn thinks local will scales up rather nicely.
Who Knows Local
No one knows their towns or cities better than our hometown newspapers. Some would say the people who grew up there know it best. Imagine combining those two sources of local content, keeping communities engaged and informed. iGrewUpIn.com wants to rebuild community connections lost to oversized social media. We want “kitchen table” discussions with our friends and neighbors back in our lives. Let’s deliver local news the old way by connecting on a deeper more personal level. iGrewUpIn, enhanced by Bloom’s geolocative technology can do just that.
