<p>We&#8217;re going to add a &#8216;DigEx&#8217; twist to the storytelling contest &#8212; create a story about where you live (home, town, city, state, country&#8230; you decide what &#8220;where you live&#8221; means) and introduce us to something or someone that you immediately think of when you hear the words &#8220;where you live.&#8221;  Send us a link to your stories, we would love to see them!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Taking your goods, crafts, skills to market can seem overwhelming in the age of the internet and mobile technology.  A neat company offering a solution for small-town businesses is <a href="http://shustir.com/">Shustir</a> &#8211; an online marketplace that focuses on providing small business owners with easy-to-use online tools to build a virtual storefront.  Using the Shustir tools, any small business owner can reach out within and beyond their local communities (markets) and build a new customer-base.  </p>
