\"loci<\/p>\n

1. Particular postions, points or places
\n2. Centers of activity, attention, or concentration<\/p>\n

Each year, I invite folks whose opinion I respect to provide the readers of this blog with lists of the articles from 2009 that seemed most important to them. The people contributing come from a range of positions and job descriptions, some will be familiar to you and others not. All have one thing in common; they have something to say about local that is worth listening to.<\/p>\n

Here is the charge that I gave them: Would you be willing to share the 3,5 or 10 articles\/ideas\/links that influenced your thinking or actions the most over the past year? The articles could be yours, or from others and could cover any topic that you think relates to Local ie local mobile, phones, mapping, Local VC, Local companies, Google, trends, marketing, best practices etc\u2026.but articles that you found of importance in one way or another throughout the year.<\/em><\/p>\n

I will be running lists from Bill Slawsk<\/a>i, David Mihm<\/a>, Seb Provencher<\/a>, Matt McGee<\/a>, Martijn Beijk<\/a>, Daniel Tunkelang<\/a>, Mike Dobson<\/a>, Gib Olander<\/a>, Lisa Barone<\/a> and more. <\/p>\n

Stop back over the next 10 days to welcome their many voices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
