    LocalWiki Launches TriangleWiki

    LocalWiki is incredibly excited to announce that our second focus community, the TriangleWiki, has just launched. Check it out!

    The TriangleWiki launches with over 1,000 pages -- more than three times the amount that the Davis Wiki had at its launch. Interestingly, the TriangleWiki wasn't spearheaded by college students like the Davis Wiki or the DentonWiki. The core group that's driven the build-out of the TriangleWiki met at City Camp Raleigh and is really far-reaching -- consisting of everyone from college students to City Council members.

    At more than 1,000 pages, it can be hard to get a quick feel for the project's breadth. With that in mind, we put together a little random page tour -- check it out!

    You can read more about the Triangle local wiki project here and our first year report here. And check out this graph of total TriangleWiki content over time:

    I think newspapers, blogs, and magazines should all be doing audio versions. I grew up enjoying and listening to audiobooks and now I don't have the same option for the short form content that I prefer to consume.
