Northamptonist is an excellent, often updated blog about local issues ranging from politics to street art in the town of Northampton.
They are currently engaged in a fascinating project called the Community Audio Recording Project, in which those wishing to participate may call a telephone number and leave a message up to two minutes in length. The audio file is then geotagged and linked to on a Google Map.
