Hyperlocal map of the UK

We’re fans of the Hyperlocal.co.uk initiative but wanted to highlight this particular feature: a map of hyperlocal sites in the UK. Fantastic.

As anyone interested in hyperlocal publishing knows, a lot of the activity and discussion on Twitter and blogs is around US sites. Although there is a lot happening in the UK, it’s not always easy to find amongst the international noise.

It doesn’t have a huge number of sites listed yet – but as it builds traction and more sites request to be listed, it’ll be a great tool.

We’re currently using Twitter to share information and follow interesting thinkers and practitioners. From hyperlocal afficionados, to academics to entrepreneurs, we’re enjoying creating a network and learning as we go.

If you tweet, we’d love to connect with you – just follow www.twitter.com/cmmntyinfopoint.

 

We’ve only just begun…

…to blog.

So forgive the empty spaces, they’ll be filled shortly with posts and thoughts about hyperlocal publishing, networks, social inclusion, bringing the authorities – and their services – to the people and how the heck advertising can still be a viable business model.

So watch this space and drop us a line if you blog on similar subjects as we’d love to read your thoughts: communityinfopoint@googlemail.com.
