Online news service The Westcoaster, based in Tofino, BC, has undertaken a redesign. The website, located at <http://www.westcoaster.ca>, primarily serves the Vancouver Island communities of Port Alberni, Tofino and Ucluelet. "Over the past five years, The Westcoaster has built a solid reputation for quality journalism that has attracted national and international readers," said editor and publisher Keven Drews. "It's now time to evolve the publication to take advantage of the latest technology developments that make the site more approachable, and bring even more value to readers and advertisers." The redesign, performed by Jenkai Internet of Victoria, includes a new layout and new content management and advertising management systems. The site is also expanding its editorial coverage to include travel and tourism. In related news, Greg Mollon has joined the publication as a shareholder and business manager.
