-”The rustwire.com site [Kate] and Angie have developed is livelier, more visually appealing and more journalistic than most newspaper sites - packed with interviews, news reports and smart features on sports teams, the arts, the auto industry, buying local, local currency movements, issues with vacant and abandoned houses, trains and old train stations, sprawl, urban farms and all things rusty and optimistic.”

From the book “The Death and Life of American Journalism: The Media      Revolution That Will Begin the World Again” by Robert W. McChesney and John Nichols (Here is it on Amazon.)

    My name is Adam Shapiro,and normally I wouldn’t be that annoying guy who sends a blind email, but the mobile technology I work with, Zebek, is launching a new hyper-local suite of products that could provide immediate ROI and mobile presence for your site. It’s all done at absolutely no cost to you.

    These tools would enable RustWire to:

    - Easily deploy a feature and content-rich location-based mobile application to your audience. There’s no app development cost at all, and it’s totally branded by you. iPhone and Blackberry come first, with Android soon to follow.
    - Integrate social and local modules for your Web site, which bring immediate ROI to you while delivering relevant content to users
    - Provide a self-serve ad delivery system that local advertisers can use to create, manage and deliver highly targeted ads to your mobile app and Web site. Totally hands-off revenue.

    The idea is to enable local content publishers to deploy innovative and highly personalized experiences to their audiences that build community and drive revenue immediately. It’s all done at no cost — the model is revenue sharing, with the majority going to the you.

    The best part? It’s free. I don’t mean to sound like a used car salesman, but frankly, we think there’s big money to be made later when our tech is proven, so our launch partners (13 so far) can benefit now.

    Anyway, pardon my blathering on… but if you have a few minutes to chat just let me know. I’d love to say hello.

    Thanks
