 <title>Placeblogging &quot;Lessons Learned&quot;</title>
 <link>http://www.blogher.com/placeblogging-lessons-learned</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;What &quot;lessons learned&quot; and pleasant surprises have you experienced in building, refining and publicizing your placeblog?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I live in a rural area. We have silos of local citizen-run groups. There is a recognized need to build an umbrella community -- to share information and resources, while each group maintains its functional autonomy. I&#039;ve build a &lt;a href=&quot;http://ourcommunity.wordpress.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;beta site&lt;/a&gt; (using the free wordpress.com hosting). Right now, it is mainly focusing on our local elections -- my intent is to build the content out (and beautify the design).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sharing your experiences would be most welcomed.&lt;/p&gt;
