$1,000 Citizen Media Award

MyReporter

http://www.myreporter.com/

MyReporter.com is customized WordPress blog that allows readers to pose questions about their community and get answers researched and written by the editorial staff. It works like this: You ask a question in any of three ways: a form on the site, MyReporter.com’s Twitter account or e-mail. Within 24 hours (longer on weekends and holidays), you get a personal response letting you know how they plan to handle your question. The project seeks to reverse the traditional reader-input-follows-the-story-model to a reader-is-in-control-from-the-start model.
