Steve Perlow contacted me today about a new site he just released called CheckLocal.com. The site uses Ajax and other technologies to allow a user to search multiple local search sites at once. Pretty neat if you need to quickly check statuses for a new client or something like that. I suspect an end user might find it useful as well for a ‘local search’!

I asked Steve to give me a little background on CheckLocal.com and here is what he said:

“I started thinking about how to offer results from the best local search
engines all at once, and quickly realized there were even more of these
sites out there than I knew about. As a result, I think checklocal.com
works great to research stops on your next trip or find things near your
home, but I also think many users will discover something new, like
Mojam (concert listings) or outside.in (local news and blogs).
Checklocal.com is where you can come back to find all the best local
search tools all in one spot.”
