Like my previous post I would like to know more about Ybor in general. I've always been into run down cities that have graffiti on the sides of the buildings or even small sandwich shops.

Blog #9 – NEWSY
Right off the bat you can already tell what NEWSY.com is going to be all about. If the site's title itself didn't give it away, let me tell you.

Blog #8 – Hyperlocal News Sites
Personally, I have never heard of a "Hyperlocal News Site" until this assignment.

Alwin Zapanta isn’t just your average 20-year old. He was born and raised in the Philippines but later came to the U.S. when he had just started middle school. Just barely knowing a few words in English and still having a strong native accent at the time as well, it was a long and dragging … Continue reading Blog #3 – Interview Questions
