This morning, I noticed that Yahoo! News has debuted a beta of a new featured called Local News, wherein you can enter your ZIP code and it will purportedly aggregate local news stories. However, upon entering 12866, I was given the message:
"To see news for Saratoga Springs, NY, please select a metro area: Buffalo, Burlington, New York."
Um, guys? Neither of those cities are within a 100-mile radius of here. Albany would have been acceptable. Heck, even Syracuse is closer.
And, hey, I get the same message when I change the location to "Albany, NY."
So I'm not impressed with Yahoo! Local News.
