Not sure I’d call yourCardiff ‘hyperlocal’ – it’s probably just local. But nice article from Laura Oliver on journalism.co.uk on the launch of yourCardiff and the idea behind it.
It has my journey from journalism degree, to student media, to placements, to running Blog Preston (now that’s probably more hyperlocal, as Preston’s a smaller city). But I’m not going to get into the debate about what is, or isn’t, hyperlocal. It’s all good stuff.
Have a read of ‘Lessons from the hyperlocal frontline…’

Glad you liked it!
The hyperlocal in the headline was meant to refer to the lessons learned at Blog Preston – but I don’t want to get into the defining debate either!
