BBC London mentions Preston Blog
There’s an article on the BBC London site called ‘Me and My Blog‘ about blogging and particularly hyper-local blogging and it mentions Preston Blog.
It’s always nice to be noticed. If you don’t know what hyper-local blogging is (and a few years ago I wouldn’t have known), the article states:
Hyper-local bloggers – who blog about one street, borough or town – have served to replace aspects of the dying local paper, nourishing community life and reporting on anything from council meetings to new restaurant openings.
Thanks for the mention Clarissa, and let’s keep it going.
24-year-old journalist. Currently working for Media Wales in Cardiff, but founded Blog Preston in January 2009. Graduated from the University of Central Lancashire in 2007 with a first-class BA (Hons) in Journalism. Blogs at edwalker.net and twitters at @ed_walker86.
