New Site System Goes Public Today!

Today we unveil a fully upgraded website. The new site, which encourages readers to post their own local news stories, offers expanded facilities for posting news from all regions of the South West, an improved calendar, better facilities to upload images, video and audio content, a cleaner site design, easier access to the information and more scope for the site to expand.

A Bristol Indymedia volunteer said, “We are really excited by the launch of the new site. It's the result of much hard work by volunteers and we look forward to people using it to tell their stories in their way. This is another step in the ongoing growth of the project – democratic media in action, made by and for its users with no commercial interests and an open and accountable editorial process. It's easy and free to use and we look forward to working with our existing readers/contributors as well as welcoming new people to the site.” Since its launch in 2001 the Bristol Indymedia project has grown year-on-year to become one of Bristol and the South West's most recognisable news websites. (PS. As with any new system, we expect there to be a few bugs. You can find out more about the new version on the help page and if you have any problems or comments then contact us: imc-bristol (at) lists.indymedia.org. We hope you enjoy using the new site!
