place shout: milwaukee
Being a pretty big techno-geek (for now anyway, but that's a whole separate post), I spend a lot of time on the internet researching programming languages and new technologies. Occasionally my research brings me to some cool, new websites. This time I was researching a language called Ruby on Rails and came across a semi-recently released site built on Rails called Placeshout.
In a nutshell,
In a nutshell,
"Placeshout isn't about volume - it's about trying to express the positives and negatives of a destination in as few of words as possible. If people agree, that "shoutout" moves up...if they don't, the shoutout moves down and begins to disappear."So I went to check it out to see Rails on display. It's a cool site however Milwaukee was missing (not yet added by someone) from the list of cities so I added it and put in a quick "shout" for The Lodge. It was just the first thing to come to me and I just wanted to get Milwaukee on the map so to speak. So check out Placeshout and add some shouts for Milwaukee to let the rest of the world know what a cool destination this is.

Derek,
Glad you are enjoying PlaceShout! The mid-west is really representin' - Ann Arbor, MI has the most shoutouts of any city.
Good name btw :)

PlaceShout seems to be a pretty cool site and would be nice to get recommendations from people on where to go. Although I could just ask you, since you seem to have "shouted" the most about places :) And what's this "for now" stuff?? I'll have to have a chat with you on what that means! And Chris too since he's touring IT schools right now!
