Review Canada's local businesses and events with Canocal

I received an email from Jeff Thorne this afternoon that made my day for two reasons. First, he said he liked my other blog, Startup Fever, which is always nice to hear. Second, I learned from his signature, that Jeff is a founder with Canocal, a new web service that let's Canadians review businesses and events in their area; as they bill it, "Canada's Local Grapevine".
From what I've seen of the site so far, I'm impressed. Mind you, they only went live three weeks ago, so there isn't much content, yet. But the potential is there.
Michael Hiemstra and I have been talking on and off about starting up a website to cover events in the Waterloo area. It looks to me like Canocal could play an integral part in making that happen. Combined with Upcoming.org and Kitchener-Waterloo Craiglist, getting local is getting easier.
