About That's So Sarasota

Since our first site, I Love the Burg, launched in May of 2009 to cover All Things Good in St. Petersburg, FL, it has been our mission to make our communities the best place to live, work and play. Our sites are a comprehensive resource for discovering the opportunities and events in St. Pete, Tampa and Sarasota.

Maintaining a high rate of engagement across several social media platforms, websites and newsletters makes RKC.me the largest and longest-running independently owned and operated hyper-local media source in the greater Tampa Bay area.

I Love the Burg is a federally registered trademark. The downtown St. Petersburg creative agency WallMedia Partners maintains this website and provides the creative resources needed to keep it up and running on a day-to-day basis.
