Boston, May 17, 2007 - CityVoter Inc today announced that it has been named as a finalist for the 4th Annual MITX Technology Awards. The MITX What's Next Forum & Technology Awards recognize innovative technologies developed in the New England area, as well as the individuals and organizations responsible for driving these advancements. The Massachusetts Innovation & Technology Exchange (MITX) is the region's premier association for thought leadership, technology trends, business networking and professional training and development.

CityVoter's metro guides provide leading media companies with market-exclusive hyperlocal websites. CityVoter guides, promoted on-air and online by local media outlets, are filled with rich photo galleries, videos, and current information contributed by local businesses and consumers. CityVoter launches each guide with an annual contest allowing locals to nominate and vote for their favorites. The end result is an online guide filled with valuable, user-generated content.

The CityVoter A-List metro guide is the only interactive, image-based guide offering:

• thousands of pages of local content fueled by viral marketing
• editorial review services to reduce the risk associated with user-generated content
• free listings and features putting the business in control of how they appear on the guide
• online voting platform ensuring advertising relationships do not skew or influence results
• online and television promotion provided by local media outlets
• local perspective from users who nominate and vote for businesses, post comments, and upload photos

"We are pleased to receive this recognition for innovation in the Digital Media space," said Josh Walker, CityVoter founder and CEO. "As online ad revenues continue to sky rocket, our clients need more than sticky web content. They need a solution that reaches new audiences, engages them, and then rewards them for their loyalty. It's about improving the user experience by offering consumers more than they expect from basic directory and search engines. Because our guides provide local business owners with complimentary listings, content publishing tools, and online and television promotion hard-working local business owners easily showcase their products and services online."

"The regional economy is showing real strength, and it's in no small part due to the resurgence in the technology sector and the innovation that fuels so much of the growth," said Kiki Mills, executive director of MITX. "The MITX Technology Awards are a wonderful opportunity to recognize the companies that are leading the way and to celebrate their accomplishments and that of the entire technology community."
