Now on FourteenTeeth you can view local blogs for select areas! More locations and blogs are coming very soon, but we wanted to get the concept out there with a few local blogs and get some feedback.

So let us know what you think!

How it Works:

We guess your location based on your IP address (most websites do this, it's nothing to be worried about). We then find the closest supported city (or country) and request blogs based there. You can also change your location to view local blogs for any area! We optimized everything to make the experience as fast as possible.

Coming Soon:

Many more locations and blogs! We need suggestions! We also hope to break down some of the countries, like Australia, into regions. But most of all we just need more coverage in terms of locations and blogs. So send suggestions our way!

We've also got a few bugs to fix and some things to improve. The maps, for example, don't always look the best. We might go to a region-based approach, or allow blog ordering/filtering. Let us know how we can make FourteenTeeth better!

We're thinking of doing something like this, where local blogs are displayed on FourteenTeeth. Local blogs would be automatically displayed based on IP address (or a chosen manually-entered location) if available for an area. For example, while browsing FourteenTeeth in NYC, you might get local blogs such as Bike Blog NYC, while in Seattle, you might get ZLOG and Go Means Go.

We'd initially go live with a few locations (Seattle, SF, NYC, UK, etc.), and add more as time goes on (people would be able to suggest blogs quickly and easily).

Thoughts? Suggestions? I'd love to hear what everyone thinks about this.
