The local and hyperlocal news aggregator Fwix has signed its first big media deal: an agreement with the New York Times Company to distribute headlines across local newspaper sites.
“We are extremely proud to be working with The New York Times Company, one of the world’s leading news companies,” Fwix CEO and founder Darian Shirazi said in the press release. “This is a vote of confidence in our technology and our unique offering to news companies.”
Fwix recently updated its API to display “nearby” streams of content, both from city and neighborhood news sources. And last month it launched mobile apps for 6 cities.
