Reinvigorating Local Journalism
Local newspapers are on life support, their business model carved up by a dozen different centralized platforms that have no interest in local concerns. Important local issues are overshadowed by rancorous national debates.
QuirkLocal is designed to reinvigorate local journalism, center local debates, and create a compelling source of local content.
Our Mission
Our mission is to use technology to enrich local communities.
The time is ripe for a new social media platform that’s scaled to the local community, not global markets. A platform that gives users control over their own data. A media platform that’s creative and generative, using technology to build our communities and bring us together.
QuirkLocal is that platform:
The digital evolution of the local newspaper, and a reboot of the modern social media platform.
