Everybody loves, or at least "Likes," the Ada Icon.
Today your local online news service passed 2,000 "Likes" on Facebook. That's a significant number of computers tracking Ada area news on a daily basis in a town with little more than 1,000 homes.
Yes, some people have two computers, and ONU students tune into our news as well. Plus, the Ada Icon goes throughout the world. We are accessed by people in nearly every state each month and, in a year's time, by people in more than 100 countries.
Thanks for your support of our efforts to help us live up to our motto: Where Ada gets its news.
Also, thanks to the business people who buy ads which provide the funds to keep us in business.
Our readership is up about 30 percent compared to a year ago. The number of local news stories posted in a week is anywhere from 50 to 70, a significant number in a village the size of Ada.
Looking forward to the future,
- Fred Steiner, owner and publisher
