Jan 2019 - the Hackney Stream website is in makeover mode, the radio server is offline, and the podcasts are all on podcast.hellohackney.net - so there won't be much activity here for a while. Temporary diversion: @HelloHackney | blog.hellohackney.net
Still here, but we have been too busy during the last 12 months to think about Twitter. Right now, the centre of our universe is blog.hellohackney.net and blog.hellohackney.net/category/podca… - please come and see us the real world. You will like it 😀
