Describe your site or business in few words.

Keith Magnum, editor-in-chief: “We publish an independent free monthly newspaper called Hackney Citizen and run a website by the same name. We distribute 10 000 copies around Hackney, a borough of North East London, in shops and cafés.

We’ve been monthly since July 2010. Before that we published quarterly, since July 2008. Initially, the website was just a holding page, probably for the first year, until about 2009 when we begun doing more frequent news online. Before that, we didn’t know about WordPress or the whole online hyperlocal scene in the UK. So it was a bit weird to suddenly find ourselves a part of it!

Describe your site or business in few words.

Dijonscope is a regional online news site with a strong identity for independent journalism. It is the first online daily regional to be officially recognised as a press organisation under French authorities. The mission statement representing the work of the journalists on the site is impassioned: Inform, investigate, and criticize.

The team of Dijon-based journalists focus on quality rather than quantity, with editorial decisions being more about cutting-edge investigative or informative reporting than following the day-to-day highlights from institutes – formerly the fodder of regional printed press. Their value for readers is in creating ‘ a rigorous and independent range of information, drawn and filtered by journalists and correspondents whose intellectual integrity is uncompromising’.

Limited company

Describe your site or business in few words.

Jonathan Lloyd, the founder and owner:

“Media Street Apps is a start-up business developing a web application called Media Street, which is a software application to run local websites. Our case study pilot site is for my local area, King’s Road, in Chelsea, London (kingsroad.co.uk). Our second local website is fulhamroad.co.uk.

Any domain name can be plugged into the Media Street app. That means a local news website can be created very quickly. I can expand into other areas of London without having to reinvent the wheel. We can also license the app to others, but that’s not in my six-month business plan. I’m trying to nail and finish my two pilot sites first.
