Xtra Xtra

Since our site launched in 2009, www.xtraxtra.com has been your digital resource for hometown news, photos, and milestone announcements. A non-subscription service, we’ve kept you informed of life events in community; including birth announcements, engagements and weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, adoptions, military, athletic, academic, professional achievements and more. We are pleased to announce that while we are keeping the milestone feature of our site, we are expanding further into the hyperlocal news arena. xtra xtra has transformed into a local news platform, run by site visitors like you. We call them citizens journalists. Our revolutionary new platform consists of a vast network of town editors who serve as the voice for their respective towns. While other sites employ out-of-towners to relay local news stories, we understand that no one has a deeper knowledge of what’s going on in a community than those who live and work there. That’s why our team of citizen journalists is able to report intimate news stories written for the community, by the community.
