I’m coming rather late to this and people have already picked up on some of the points I want to raise. There’s definitely an air in the north of “want to do” rather than want to talk” – as has been mentioned Manchester’s Social Media Cafe is looking to use is its shared knowledge to help communities, non-profits, charities etc. There’s not much endlessly gathering to share know-how if ultimately it’s not harnessed to help those who could use the help.

As an attendee yesterday at Open 09 in Preston, both the sessions I participated in (future of the web and journalism) raised the London and not-London issue, applied to both the London-centric news agenda that leads to ignoring local coverage and also the wealth of digital talent in the north-west that never gets reported on because tech publications focus only on London events and companies in the UK. In reality, I think much of what I’ve seen going on in Manchester and elsewhere up here in the far-from-grim north is at least as vibrant, exciting and creative as anything in the capital, if not more so.
