About
Created in Birmingham is a weblog that has been written on an almost daily basis since January 2008, promoting, discussing and being part of Birmingham’s vibrant creative community.
It all started when blogging advocate Pete Ashton met with all-round creative good guy Stef Lewandowski and discussed the need for an online home for the Birmingham arts scene. The blog needed a strong voice and since its conception it has been run by Pete, who has inspired a huge amount of people to get blogging for themselves. Chris Unitt took over in May 2008 and now the site is currently run by me, Kate Spragg since January 2009.
There are two reasons for this blog:
- To find out what’s going on around Birmingham and promote it
- To show that blogging is a simple and effective way of engaging with audiences online
