# memePDX 008: Simler, KATU goes hyperlocal, Crush It with @garyvee, Blazers get streamy, BlogWorld, and Food Carts Portland

How did it get to be Thursday already? Well, I guess we should crank out another episode of the old [memePDX](http://twitter.com/memepdx "memePDX on Twitter"), hunh?

Okay. For you, we’ll do it. I mean, your wish is our command.

This week we cover [KATU launching hyperlocal Portland blogs](http://siliconflorist.com/2009/10/09/katu-launches-hyperlocal-portland-blogs/ "KATU launches hyperlocal Portland blogs"), Portland vs. Seattle, Portland vs. San Francisco, [Gary Vaynerchuk](http://twitter.com/garyvee "Gary Vaynerchuk") at Powell’s on the [Crush It](http://crushitbook.com/ "Crush It") book tour, [Portland Trail Blazers are talking about live streaming games](http://mikebarrettsblog.blogspot.com/2009/10/live-stream-will-include-games.html "Live Stream Will Include Games"), [Dieselboi](http://twitter.com/dieselboi "Dieselboi") focusing on [Food Carts Portland](http://foodcartsportland.com/ "Food Carts Portland"), BlogWorld, and Cami gives you a piece of her mind on the FTC while sporting a new [Simler](http://simler.com "Simler") shirt.
