Dawn,

Hyperlocal rocks. If we in NI can’t blow our own trumpets then why should we moan when others don’t? Loving the new WordPress theme on your site by the way.

Thanks for the additional recommendations. We’re already thinking of a follow-up post.

Hi Dawn,
Thanks so much for including whatsonni.com in your post. There are some great local websites in Northern Ireland – a couple of others on the scene are http://www.sugahfix.com, http://www.digimumsni.com and usedcarsni.com – all providing local information for local people. It is important for us that the information is actually provided by the organisers – local people providing the content for local users as opposed to buying in the information. User generated content – and giving the user the access to edit their information after it has been published is key to what we are doing – ensuring the content is always current.

Thanks again!
