This week, Roger Bamkin, John Cunningham, Robin Owain and I took part in an intensive, competitive event, as part of the GeoVation Challenge:
We pitched a proposal to extend the Monmouthpedia model along the Wales Coast Path, the world's first footpath covering the entire coastline of a country:

Our bid, which would involve training communities of people to edit articles about their local area, the erecting QRpedia codes linking to those articles, was very well received, and we're through to the final:

which will take place on 18 July. If successful we will receive funds which will cover the cost of training sessions and the production of QRpedia plaques and stickers.
Impressive, Good Luck!
