The Boston Globe expanded Your Town into six more Massachusetts communities as the paper continues to hone its hyperlocal initiative.
The towns, Hingham, Malden, Medford, Melrose, Norwell and Scituate, join six other communities that served as trial locations for Your Town, which The Globe launched last fall.
"We didn't feel we could validate the project unless we got it off the ground and saw some audience consumption and to see how advertising would fare," said Robert Kempf, Boston.com's vice president of product and technology.
"We're running about twice our original plan for page views and for visits and have seen pretty strong numbers in unique visitors as well," he said.
To automate the flow of news and information to the individual sites, Boston.com tags select content with MetaCarta's geo tagging software and funnels it through an aggregator tool through which Web producers can select stories to post.

Is it MAGIC or is it MetaCarta: Part 1
If you are not sure what they do, then here is the understatement. They put documents on maps. The amazing part is how. I am making a tour of the State of Alabama over the next few days to make sure that my friends know this is out there. I do not evangelize if I don't believe that it can help our State.

As websites mature and the demand for geographic applications grow, the old mashup arrangement is starting to chafe. Mapping components are more and more vital, and so we demand greater control, expressiveness, and functionality from them.
