Hyperlocal Information
一个重要的新名词，hyperlocal—-Wikipedia是这样解释的：
The term “hyperlocal” is sometimes used to refer to news coverage of community-level events usually overlooked by mainstream media outlets. The increased usage of digital media devices (e.g. photo and video cameras, audio recorders), blogs, new media, and participation in social media, has made hyperlocal media content more widely available.
