Hyperlocal sites of any flavor: Please help us with the New Business Models for News Project and fill out our survey. Last chance before we start compiling data. The information will be kept in confidence (released only in aggregate) but it will be a big, big help to find out about local sites – blogs, newspapers’ sites, forums, whatever – to measure the size of these sites and their potential so we can help optimize their businesses. So please help.

Jeff: Would it mess up the project to say how many responses you have had so far?
I have found your comments and insight helpful since I am trying this very concept where I live. I receive lots of “that’s cool” comments and steady increase of readership. I look forward to the results of this survey.
Easier said than done.
Great Broadcast Jeff
on the Guardain UK Site.
Good to here such Spirit, Google has more power and Tweets are limited
Its true changes will happen.
I hope your broadcast can be a 2 week event and not need a UK Producer
I think Jeff can be trusted.
