Hitting the pavement

Chris and Matt discussing high-tech business in a small town

Hello again!

Another day down and more progress made.

We are continuing to photograph downtown, our focus as of late is the interiors of each business profiled.

We still have some exterior shooting to complete, but we are waiting for some stores to complete remodel work.

We also completed our first preliminary interview, and that was with Chris Schmidt of KValley Computers & Internet.

It was a fantastic interview, and we really appreciate Chris taking time out of his schedule to chat for awhile.

We’ve both conducted a lot of interviews over our time, and we both agree that Chris’s was one of the best we’ve seen or been a part of.

We have posted a picture from the interview with Chris here in this blog entry.

We will be posting the remainder of the pictures to the Flickr account as soon as we can!

We’re also developing workshops for businesses and consumers on how to use Foursquare, a social media app that allows consumers to inform their friends about places they frequent rapidly.

If you’d like to learn more about it go to Foursquare to learn more. Send a friend request to Matthew Ballantyne and Stefanie Burger while you're there!

The weather couldn't be better as we're doing this first and second phase of work, and we are anticipating getting the first phase done this week!

We're lining up more dates for interviews, and should have a great framework for the final part relatively soon.

More in store for tomorrow!
