That little widget is really only a test to make sure the part of the plugin that talks to OpenlyLocal is working. It’ll be one of many widgets and other features that will be included.

For example, you could write a post on a local councillor (not sure what your equivalent would be) and the plugin will automatically add a bunch of information about that councillor to the post (such as contact details).

Glad to find your blog, I’ll be keeping an eye on it!
