Greetings from YourHub.com World Headquarters.
Thursday is Mail Day for us here at the office. Charmaine and I spend most of the morning mailing out extra copies of the paper to all the folks who contributed stories or photos to our print edition, which comes on top of the Rocky Mountain News and the Denver Post.
Looking at the envelopes we've addressed, I see that all the names are just regular folks out in the community who've posted their stories and photos to the YourHub.com Web site: Dean Dalvit, of Evergreen, Richard Gardner, of Golden, and Amy Braun, of Golden High School.
To thank the people who write the news that's in our paper, we send them a few copies of the paper for their scrapbook.
I'd send them money to reward them for their efforts, but the Rocky Mountain News actually pays me in McDonald's gift certificates, which I think would be kind of tacky.
Anyway, the point is, the people who run this paper are your neighbors. We just sit here in the office and try to keep it all organized five days a week. Send us your story, and if we put it in the YourHub.com print edition, we'll send you some papers. Click here to get started.
