Exploit Boston is Five Today

The internets ungulate more than any other of our friends. There seems to be a new kid on the block every other day with others just disappearing. It’s nice to know that some friends stick around for a while. Exploit Boston officially turned five years old today. That means it was post-boom, pre-web 2.0, and, oh, does any of that nonsense even matter? In the last five years the website has served as an events calendar (with curator Sooz), a pool of event related photographs, a radio station featuring local bands, and monthly game nights. The Exploit Boston presence has spread to a profile on MySpace, HeyLetsGo, Upcoming, and a stream of artists from the radio station tracked on Tourfilter. You can always contribute your Flickr photos to the Exploit Boston photo pool, catch up with a game of Mastermind or Apples to Apples at the game nights (next one is on February 6 at Soul Fire in Allston), or, you can always tune into the radio station and hear good local music. It’s like your very own hype machine – but only for bands in Boston, many of whom you’ll be able to checkout at a live show nearby. The radio station is set to turn four in a couple of months, and that’s more than we can say about some of the FM stations in the area (ahem. Mike?). Happy Birthday Exploit Boston.
