The most-read articles so far this week include statements from police and relatives of missing New Canaan mom Jennifer Dulos, as well as guidance from the Board of Education on school start times, a popular weekly news summary and recent property transfers.
Here’s a snapshot of monthly traffic since the site launched in January 2014:
Focused on quality-of-life issues for New Canaanites, such as land use, parks, traffic, public safety, pets, parking, the downtown and local history, the site hit the five-year mark in January. The New Canaanite has more than 2,000 subscribers to its daily newsletter and recently launched a weekly podcast, “0684-Radi0.”
Owner and editor Michael Dinan hosts a monthly coffee at New Canaan Library, presented in partnership with the library and Zumbach’s Gourmet Coffee.
Congrats Mike!
But I’m unclear on why some articles do not allow comments? Get it on the missing mom, but landscaping on Park St, really??
Mike: Congrats always my first read in the AM
Mike — just think if you charged for each view– say .50 cents
keep the good work
Congratulations, wishing you continued success. Thank you for your fair and balanced coverage!
