StreetAdvisor – Hyperlocal Wikipedia

March 30, 2007 · 1 Comment

Australian startup StreetAdvisor launched this week and has received a huge amount of coverage. GigaOM, Mashable, SearchEngineLand and TechCrunch among those to review.

StreetAdvisor

Essentially people in 26 countries can log in and rate their street (Google maps mashup) according to a 5 characteristics

  • StreetVIBE
  • StreetWIRED
  • StreetHEALTH
  • StreetVALUE
  • StreetESSENTIALS

There’s a wealth of valuable content to be generated here (Reviews, GuideBoard and StreetBoard) and it’s got the potential to be a hyperlocal (or as Search Engine Land calls it Micro-Local) wikipedia.

I wonder if this will escalate neighbourhood squabbles to a whole new level?
