My Billings Gazette

CloseWhat is this?
My Billings Gazette is a civic social network for people, groups and businesses located in Montana and Wyoming.

OK, but what does that mean?
We're aiming to foster a local community dedicated to discussion and expression. At our Web site, billingsgazette.com, we cover events that our reporters and editors dig up. This site is dedicated to the stories and thoughts that happen around or adjacent to those events.

At My Billings Gazette, every person has a personal blog, photo gallery, video gallery, and a profile. You can be as public or private as you want to in what you share. You can add other people to your friends list, as you would on sites like myspace or facebook. Click here for the full FAQ on how to manage your profile and online posts.

In addition to your individual space on My Billings Gazette, you also have the option to join different groups within the community. Groups can be anything from a parenting discussion to a forum for disc golf players, a neighborhood watch association, or a way for local musicians to keep in touch with each other. If you’re interested in hosting an existing group with us, just let us know – it’s free and we’re happy to help. Just drop us a line here.

Can I promote my Business on My Billings Gazette?
