Get your point of view out there, Walmart is.

One of the basic ideas that MerchantCircle is being built on was bringing the capabilities of the biggest companies to the small merchant. We want to bring the local internet to the small merchant so they can put it to use. One small part of this was to bring the ability to get your point of view out to the local community via blogging and newsletters.

Well it ends up that the mother of all Massive Retailers, Walmart, has been using blogging to get their point of view out to the local community. They may not really be doing it in a fair way , as is pointed out in the New York Times, but they are doing it.

A couple of our merchants are starting to see the impact of their own activities to share their story. Here are two of our favorite blogs. Because of the way these blogs are picked up by the major search engines like Google and Yahoo, this offers you a great way to not only share your story but to have it heard by your local community.
