Team
As the founder of Local Squawk I had previous experience in web based media.
In 2005 I founded Radio Free Biker the first known motorcycle podcast. Which was a weekly
hour long magazine show about the motorcycle community. For the longest time even after
going into hiadias Radio Free Biker was still listed as the number one motorcycle podcast on many directories. The concept of Local Squawk came out of Radio Free Biker when I wanted to expand the RFB site with music and other podcast.
Business model

Competitive advantage
Unlike sites like myspace where particpants rely mostly on an online version of word of mouth Local Squawk will give the opportunity to have their content broadcasted online
much like a radio or tv station. Speaking of unlike the terrestrial radio industry which
is mostly controlled by what I call the Clear Channel cartel whose listeners only hear music
from major labels Local Squawk allows listeners to hear local music that they may not always got to know about unless as I said they found out through word of mouth.
