Shetlopedia - The Shetland Encyclopaedia that anyone can edit
The Shetland News was a weekly Shetland newspaper published between 1885 and 1963. It was founded in the Conservative interest, and for most of its career was edited by Thomas Manson and his son, Thomas Mortimer Yule Manson.
In 1995, The Shetland News website was launched by The Shetland News Agency, using the name and logo from the old Shetland News paper. They were the first UK newspaper to be published exclusively on the Internet. In 1999 the website closed down due to a lack of funds, but it was re-launched on 13th March 2003.
The Shetland News is Shetland's Internet-only Daily Newspaper & Digest, with daily news, views and other items.
On the 2nd of April 2007, The Shetland News launched their 'new-look' website.
