You're probably not the only one. Shoot me an email- I have some data for your space that might be tremendously useful.

  Thanks Ilya, just sent you an email. We are entering the already crowded market of local deals. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    Would you mind if I ask why? I'm honestly curious about whether you guys either (a) have a competitive advantage over the likes of Groupon (and Google too, apparently, after today), or (b) with the $6 billion offer, just want to get a slice of the pie. For the record, I don't think there's anything wrong with either one -- just curious.

      Because there is one service I would use everyday nobody offers today, not even groupon, google, etc. No matter where I am, I want to look at my iPhone and see what deals for lunch at the nearest Chili's, Cheesecake Factory, Houstons, etc. based on geolocation. If I am looking for the newest pair of Nikes, know who's got them around me for the best price. Local deals, long tail, one to one, geolocation, all in one. That's a multi billion dollar business, untamed...

        In case you haven't seen it, I'd look at http://milo.com http://milo.com . Not quite what you're describing, but based on similar premises. They were acquired by eBay not too long ago for $70 million. At least eBay sees value in local shopping as you described it.

      Btw, google recently bought signpost (in the millions) our most direct competitor, and we believe we can do better than that.
