By Dave Elchoness, Guest Columnist
I graduated from Edison High School 22 years ago before there was an Internet, a website, a blog, or anything resembling the mobile "phone" I carry in my pocket all day, every day.
For news and information, we'd look at the Home News, the News Tribune, maybe the Star Ledger, and we'd eagerly await word of school closings on WCTC.
I remember the radio: a plug in model in a wood casing with a fabric speaker. The dial was hard to read, so I'd need to wait for the announcer to say "WCTC" before I knew if I was at the right place.
Yesterday, I learned of Everything Edison NJ, a hyperlocal news and information site focusing on Edison. It's the latest trend -- local news to reconnect people with their neighborhoods. Over the past 10 years or so, we've become very good at typing in CNN.com to see the news. It's easy.
Not so easy is finding out about your own neighborhood on the web. I love the thinking behind Everything Edison NJ. And would it have made my life a lot easier on snowy school day mornings!
As for me, I live in Colorado now and I have a company called Tagwhat which puts its own spin on hyperlocal.
Imagine walking by Edison High School and having videos, audio, and photos pop up on your mobile phone telling the school's history or about the famous people who went there or the sports victories (and losses) of Thanksgiving Days past. Go Eagles!
That's what Tagwhat does and we've got new stories coming all the time about the places around you. For example, let me know what you see when you pass by Tastee Subs on Plainfield Avenue. That's one of my favorites.
Tagwhat tells "Great Stories at Places" in the mobile. Each story is made up of up to six media attachments like video, audio, and images. And stories are organized in channels like TV: Heritage, Music, Sports, Art, Movies, Nature, and Food.
So, download the app on your iPhone 3GS/4 or Android, and your phone tells Tagwhat where you are and what channels you've chosen and delivers these stories to you. If a story is too good not to share, send a digital postcard from the story to your friends in Facebook, Twitter, or email.
Up until now, Tagwhat's in-house team of journalists and film makers has been creating the stories, along with a select few like the Associated Press and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. But very soon Tagwhat's publishing platform will open. This means that anyone can place stories at any spot on the globe.
Tagwhat is at http://www.tagwhat.com/. Check us out and, coming soon, tell your own story at your special place.
Dave Elchoness is a former resident of Edison, NJ, graduated from Edison High School and Rutgers University, and is currently CEO and co-founder of Tagwhat, a mobile augmented reality platform, based in Boulder, CO.
Do you have a question for Dave or would like to learn more about augmented reality? Leave a comment or email: Editor@EverythingEdisonNJ.com or join the conversation on Facebook.
