The Washington Post has selected blog aggregator site Outside.in to provide Buzz Maps of DC-area bloggers on WashingtonPost.com, according to the Outside.in blog.
A "Buzz Map" (see example) tracks both DC-based bloggers and the places they are discussing in the area. The service also maps the top 10 places mentioned, based on volume in a given week.
The service went live on WashingtonPost.com last week. 63 cities currently comprise the Outside.in database.
Outside.in helps marry local advertising with local geo-specific bloggers. EveryBlock, a similar startup, provides geo-filtered news and data in Chicago, New York and San Francisco, according to Silicon Alley Insider.
