YourStreet Beta

I got an invite to Yourstreet beta today. I thought, "Cool, I’m special", until I realized that I signed up for the invite a while back.

On the top there’s a map that you can drag around on or zoom and resize. There are three types of markers on the map: news, conversations and neighbors. You click on any one of these and get details. You can also choose whether to see news from today, the last week, the last month, or the last three months. Below the map are listings of the local news stories.
