There are many sites that help you find services and institutions, but Local2Me.com has the added feature of a community which makes the site unique and much more helpful. Not only can you search within your community you can ask questions and help other fellow neighbors as well. Get the most out of your search by getting suggestions from people who know what they are talking about at Local2Me.com.

Local2Me.com has information on many locations but not all of them. I tried doing a search for schools in my home town of Centerville, MA and nothing came up at all. Hopefully Local2Me's network will expand and include information on more towns.
Local2Me.com could include more Web 2.0 features such as detailed profiles so that community members could interact more directly.
