Whats Nearby?

It appears that  there’s a lot of local UK information out there to explore. For instance, I’ve stumbled upon nearby.org.uk – enter your choice of search and access various links (not all working for me) related to the resultant geo location.

As an obscure example I’ve just been looking at information about a church in West Kirby – it’s my nearest one that has church bells. Whilst local church bells might not be of interest to everyone, sites like nearby demonstrate what rich, hyperlocal content is out there.

Use it as research or even embed it in a mash-up local site if you’re more technically minded.
