| New England.
6 states, 15,000,000 people. One of the most clearly defined "regions"
in the US. Compared to the other 44 states, New England would be the fifth-most
populated state in the country. Compared to the other 44 states, this would
make New England only the 19th biggest state in the country. New Englanders
have much in common, it is an extended community like no other in the country.
With this in mind, we have gradually and selectively acquired a group of
New England related domain names that would be instrumental in developing
such a portal.
A community
needs to offer something for everyone, all are included. A news
and information section, a 411
directory for people to locate people, a blog
for social interaction, a shopping
market to purchase local goods. It should offer real
estate and open
house venues so folks can market the largest
invesments of their lives. There should be yard
sale listings, want
ads, construction and remodeling
services, auto sales,
hotel & resort reservations,
apartment
guides,
Business 2 Business
access, an auction
community, maps,
commercial
property and business
opportunities.
The possibilities
are endless. The reach of a regional classified network combined with the
street level news coverage of the local weeklies. From social & commercial
networking between 15,000,000 of your neighbors, to 5th Street Elementary
is cancelled today because of the snow. The New England portal could be
born through a partnership between perhaps a dozen regional newspapers,
tv stations and other local media, who could create a New England wide
regional internet portal that serves more consumers than anything close.
Or it could become a reality through direct investment with us. |
