When I say local, I’m not just talking about Reno either.  Placeblogger.com has officially launched and is waiting for your blog to be entered.  Similar to NevadaBlogs.net, Placeblogger.com aggregates blogs by location to make it easier to find and disseminate information from a local perspective.  From their About Us page:

A placeblog is an act of sustained attention to a particular place over time
It can be done by one person, a defined group of people, or in a way that’s open to community contribution
It’s not a newspaper, though it may contain random acts of journalism
It’s about the lived experience of a place

I’m a huge fan of localized Internet.  It provides some relevance that sites going after a national or global audience lack.  I encourage everyone to add their blog now.
