There’s another Providence Geek dinner coming up this week; don’t miss it!:
Andrew Schiller, founder of Woonsocket-based Location Inc./NeighborhoodScout.com, a nationwide neighborhood search engine for home buyers and movers with 1.8 million unique visitors last year, will be talking about their patented search technology that answers the first question most home buyers have: “where should I focus my house hunt?”. The audience will try the algorithm by ‘building their ideal neighborhood’ on the site, and finding the local neighborhood that best matches the ideal imaginary one. A sneak peek at NeighborhoodScout v2 will reveal flash-based maps, data mining that has produced new levels of granularity for neighborhood crime, appreciation rate, and school ratings, and ’smart search’ taken to a new level. Andrew will be joined by Andy Couture, VP of Business Development for the company.
Be sure to check out Andrew’s blog post at RI Nexus about their forthcoming new site – Building a 250,000 page website.
I hope you’re coming to this dinner–please RSVP at the Providence Geeks site so we can get an idea of who all is coming!
