Revisiting Favorite Local Onliner Posts From 2011

With IPOs from Groupon and Angie’s List, and IPOs in the offing for AutoTrader and Yelp, 2011 has been a big year for local online media and marketplaces.

I posted 177 posts. Some were “newsy.” Some were reviews. Some were basically conference coverage. A disproportionate amount of them focused on the deals space. While I hope the posts are thoughtful and objective, none, hopefully, offended anybody.

Thanks to all the Local Onliners out there and Happy New Year. Here are some top posts and personal favorites worth re-reading….
