The presentation Simon gave at the "What's next for Community Journalism" conference organised by Centre for Community Journalism in Cardiff in September 2015. We were asked to give a talk with an overview of innovations that we'd carried out over our ten years of doing #hyperlocal news on the Isle of Wight. As the early innovation was so long ago, much of it has become mainstream in the intervening years!
