Test

This is a test message with two attachments. I need to put at least 50 words here, so either this will need to be changed, or pictorial/audio posts won't work well (maybe)

Melbourne Indymedia is back

Apologies for the long wait, readers and contributors. We're back online and hopefully more resilient to future saboteurs in the future. The server that hosts Melbourne Indymedia suffered from a DDOS attack, taking the machine offline. We think it was possibly directed at the anti- fascist Fight Dem Back site rather than at Indymedia Centres. Fight Dem Back has now moved to a new server. If you find any problems with the site please email us

Melbourne Indymedia is entirely run by volunteers. To make it better we need you to participate. Our next meeting is Saturday September 17th, 3pm at Kent st Cafe, 201 Smith St, Fitzroy.

What's the Matter with Indymedia?

Almost 6 years after its birth, the Indymedia network has grown to more than 149 websites in about 45 countries on 6 continents. But how good is Indymedia at creating a real alternative to the corporate media?

One US based Indymedia activist asks what happens when - in our attempts not to hate the media but to be it - we end up hating the media we've become? read more | debate at UCIMC
