Two posts in one day? Yes! We are quite excited to have the good folks at YP.com join our July 26th geolocation panel event at Glow Bar at the Marina del Rey Marriott! Don't know who YP is? Let me let them introduce themselves! * Greetings Social Media Club Los Angeles! YP.com, Glendale-based AT&T Interactive’s flagship property, will be sponsoring the upcoming SMC LA panel on July 26^th on the topic of Understanding the Power of Geolocation Tools. We’re excited to come together with our fellow Angelenos and talk about the opportunity around “local.” We’ve built our business around the goal of connecting consumers with local businesses – so the topic of local and geo-location hits close to home…literally.Along with ongoing innovation around our flagship web property YP.com and YPmobile apps, we’ve been quite busy here in our Glendale HQs (as well as in our other offices up in SF and Sunnyvale).
