Blurb = ''It's amazing how quickly news can accumulate. Never mind just the news outlets like print and television, with blogs and other internet-base news mediums constantly pumping out up-to-the-minute reports of interest it's hard to keep up. Sure, sites like [[Digg.com]] help promote items deemed important by a global audience, but what about news for your area? In [http://wikitravel.org/en/Portland_%28Oregon%29 Portland, Oregon], we're lucky enough to have [[ThePortlander.com]] to fill this gap. Based on open source content management software, [[ThePortlander.com]] is a web application allowing users to submit news articles related to Portland that are then reviewed and promoted by other users in a [[Digg.com|Digg]]-style popularity system. New items sit in a "Just In" section until they've had a chance to be voted on; users can also see most popular items by today, yesterday, week, month or via a search. According to their website, [[TheKastnerGroup.com|The Kastner Group]], operators of [[ThePortlander.com]], have a few more projects "coming soon," so hopefully the idea will take seed and grow in other communities besides Portland.''
