CityVoter CEO Josh Walker to Speak at 'Digital Hollywood'

BOSTON (April 28, 2008)

CityVoter, Inc., developer of exclusive, online interactive guides for leading media companies and premier online destinations for consumers to discover the best local businesses, today announced that CEO Josh Walker has been invited to speak at "Digital Hollywood," May 5-8 in Los Angeles, on the subject of social media as it relates to advertising.

Walker will participate in a panel on May 8 titled, "Social Networks - The Future of Advertising, Marketing and Brand Building." He and other panelists will examine the marketing opportunities and challenges presented by social media platforms and consumer usage of these platforms.

"Web 2.0 trends, including social media and social search are changing the way consumers interact with brands and local businesses," said Walker. "I look forward to sharing the CityVoter perspective at Digital Hollywood on how traditional media companies can leverage social media to engage their local audiences."

CityVoter works with traditional media companies-television, radio and newspapers-to increase the value and relevance of their online assets and extend their brands to online platforms. This is accomplished through CityVoter's partner-branded online guides and contests that enable media companies to increase digital advertising sales, grow online audience and sharpen their competitive edge with unique, hyper-local content. Each partner-branded metro guide launches with a contest in which consumers browse, vote for, comment on, and nominate their favorite local businesses. The result is an information-rich, trusted online resource that consumers consult before making local buying decisions.

Digital Hollywood is the premier entertainment and technology conference. For information about the event, visit http://www.digitalhollywood.com.
