Adam Gaffin, the founder and driving force behind UniversalHub joined us. He talked about how he created and maintains his elaborate and constantly updated site covering events and ideas throughout Boston’s neighborhoods and surrounding towns.
Visit the site and be amazed at how much he digests and reveals that won’t be in local dailies or weeklies any time soon, if at all. Many locals are addicted to UH.
We asked him about what he saw as workable models for newspapers, hyperlocal sites and out news sources. Listen in for his take on the present and possible futures of news.
Plus, he answers the big question — how does he do all of that every day?
