City.vi is a network of Internet video portal sites for presenting videos on the cities of the world.
The Concept
The City.vi network is made up of 68,000 sites which have been available on-line since 10.10.2010 and which is currently the largest network of active sites on the Internet.
Each site can be accessed with a simple address model: “city name” followed by “.vi”.
Examples: paris.vi, chicago.vi, barcelona.vi, sydney.vi etc
In the same manner for 68000 main cities of the world are connected by the simple URL.
Ease of Access
Until now we have been using search engine to find even the local information for places around the world. Then we have to scan through the results visually to choose the link. Then we use hit and try method to look for the right information. Even then we don’t have the specific information quickly.
With the network city.vi all the local information can be accessed at one place with the intuitive URL as {city name}.vi. In future, simply use your address window since all local information is to be found on the City.vi network video portals.
Like all the tools offered by the CITY MEDIA foundation, the City.vi network sites can be administered by the local authorities, particularly the mayors, representatives and various officials of these cities and regions. If not, the sites will be managed by relevant local bloggers. The City.vi network sites complement the cities’ official sites perfectly, providing a complete video forum. Moreover, the sites are open on all web’s content by allowing video embedding.

- Citizens put forward videos to do with the town, city or region covered by the site.
- The site administrators responsible for that video category (culture, news, events) are informed by email when new videos are put forward.
- They decide if the videos can appear on the site.
These three steps simplify and optimize municipal and regional on-line communication by bringing in the widest possible participation. The first cities to be promoted to users of the 68,000 sites will be the ones that have the most videos of quality, therefore benefiting from high international coverage.
