I’m Bernie Goldbach.Limerick School of Art and Design
This presentation explores specific social media tools that can enhance a community’s heritage profile by attracting visitors to explore the past while spending quality time in local venues.
Here is what we know:
-- Community groups should populate digital channels with their creative work.
-- Bring Your Own Device and learn to tell authentic stories.
-- Record community artefacts in conjunction with trustworthy heritage curators.

HyperlocalInformation
-- Mobile technology allows local citizens to create and share very local things by town, parish and street corners.-- This voluntarism offers a thousand points of view.-- National agencies cannot provide the same granular level of hyperlocal coverage.-- Search engines have started capturing these hyperlocal efforts.
Hyperlocal information is better than ever.
@topgold
HyperlocalDefined
-- Information oriented around a well-defined community.-- Primary focus is directed towards concerns of its residents.-- Hyperlocal also refers to the emergent ecology of data: -- textual content -- aggregators -- publication mechanism -- user interactions-- Hyperlocal has become synonymous with combined use of mobile applications and GPS technology.
By definition, hyperlocal heritage is outward-facing.
