Any URL off localweb.is has a geographic boundary of about 2 miles. So you can go to localweb.is/warhammer and post about warhammer, but only others within range can see and reply.

Why on earth would we do this? Because we think the local space fundamentally sucks.. and its too hard to find others in the area with the same interests.. and no one needs yet another app.. and we love the web.

The "front page" of the local web, localweb.is is a list of the urls people have created in the area sorted by activity... basically, whats trending within walking distance.

If you are in SF or Boston, you might see something on the front page, if not, you are likely the first person to view the local web in your 2 mile radius.

Open to all questions/comments. We don't really know what the local web will be, its a bit of an experiment.

This is very interesting. I've used sites like NextDoor, but they tend to attract only grandma's complaining about everything.
