Summing up the year is a good tradition. Always in December everyone writes: “The Year’s Top 10 I-Don’t-Know-What” or “The Year’s Top 20 Somethings or Some ones” and so on. Let us also not miss the month of reviewing the year and write a few words about 2011, the media and the Internet.<\/p>\n
The year’s successes<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Finally, the Armenian press realized that it can keep readers in ArmNet, offering news about not only a few squares and buildings in downtown Yerevan, but also outside the borders of the Republic of Armenia, stealing web traffic from various foreign sites.<\/p>\n 2.

To note on the website the editor’s name and the news agency’s contact details is just as disagreeable for online news sites as it is for several TV companies to speak about their owners<\/p>\n 6. To have an immaculate newsfeed where it’s written who, when and to whom expressed this thing \u2014 without comments, chagrin, ridicule, disgust and the expression of other emotions<\/p>\n But otherwise, it was quite a good year.
