Well, not reaaally. I’m sort of being dramatic…imagine that. But, I did happen to get an email from Hannah’s little sister this week that made me think.
It so happens that earlier this year, the mini-Meurer decided to go out on her own
as a graphic designer…which, as I’m sure you know we think is just peachy. For one thing she’s a really good one and for another it’s yet another new creative business in Savannah. Go Sarah! Following in the big sis’s footsteps…we love it!
Anyway, Sarah sent out an email promoting a new St. Patty’s Day t-shirt she’ll be selling…it’s quite spiffy looking. So much in fact, I thought I’d give her a little crap about it because after all, that’s what you do to little sisters…even if they’re not yours.
At any rate, when I read the back I thought to myself: “Is Savannah the poster child for debauchery?” I’ll grant you, this is a big stretch…but we get paid to think about how Savannah looks to outsiders, so we’re always sensitive to this kind of thing. But I mean, if you think about it, we do have a pretty generous stance on alcohol and nicotine consumption.

So, apparently at long last, the brainchild of our buddies Burton Sauls and Phil Sellers - CityTrex - has come to fruition (or is at least online). Or maybe it’s the first time I’ve heard of it…I’ve admittedly been asleep at the wheel lately (thus the first blog post in 3 weeks.) And they’ve teamed up with another local knowledge-based business named CityComber headed by our ubiquitous friend Marvin Heery. I swear I see that guy everywhere.
CityTrex LLC announced yesterday a license agreement with CityComber to further the goal of modernizing tourism in the Lowcountry. Simply put, this agreement adds a GPS component to the existing market product offering of the CityTrex iTour, which are interactive media tours on hand-held units. CityComber brings with it its handheld GPS thingamajiggy.
The jist is that you can roam around downtown and get history and tour information, depending on where you are. So, if you were standing on the west side of Madison Square, the CityComber device will automagically tell you all about the history of the Green Meldrum House, etc. Pretty cool.
