BrooWaha

Who the hell came up with the term hyperlocal?

Tonight, at an unknown time BrooWaha is going back to its roots of being part hyper (uggggh) local with NYC, Las Angeles,  Atlanta, Miami,  London, Paris and a few other city specific focused news sections.

More accurately,  Broo will remain Broo and there will be City Specific sections to share news and views from some of the world’s hippest cities.

If you live in any of these hyper city spots.  

You now have a hyper city local home to share your views, news and opinions.  

If you go too hyperlocal,  visit http://www.diaroogle.com/  

It’s for the discerning, on-the-go defecator who is brave enough to use a public bathroom, but still demands a hygienic and private bathroom experience. It is also a community authored database of Manhattan toilets.

Oh man, how much do I love UrbanDictionary.

Here’s their definition of hyperlocal :

“Hyper Local1 up, 1 down buy hyper local mugs, tshirts and magnetsCharacterized by an absurd amount of detractive descriptions about an certain and specific location See Hyperlocal for full definition

 1.Hyperlocal2 thumbs upbuy hyperlocal mugs, tshirts and magnets1) to address a location with an absurdly local description to the point where it is confusing to non-residents 2) to generally address a location with a description only comprehended by the speaker See local,redundancyInstead of saying, “I’m currently living in New York City”, one would say, “I’m currently living on Washington street, near Tony’s Pizza and the Chevron Gas Station” 

or 

One would say, “Take a right near the McDonald’s that used to be aAuto Part Store, then go ahead until you get to that nice FalafelRestaurant, then etc…” In place of, “Take a right, then go ahead 2 blocks, then etc…” 

Using Hyperlocal descriptions will surely confuse other people.hyperlocal local new york city pizza chevron washington

So Broo isn’t Twitter, it’s your place to share news, views, opinions and more.   It’s a home for talented writers nterested in improving their craft, getting their writing exposure and sharing.

ps. Oh, and you can make $s too.
