TORONTO, April 14 /CNW/ – Rogers Media announced today that two of the
newest brands in their 55 radio station footprint have launched new
“best in class” web destinations. 91.7 The Bounce in Edmonton and

ability to publish real time content that can be easily shared across
their listeners’ social networks. The websites are built with the
popular blog style format and are designed to get listeners quickly and
easily to the content that matters the most to them.
Content highlights include the ability to “Listen Live”, check out the

you’re listening to with friends and followers. The websites also
feature robust multimedia galleries, Twitter and Facebook posts, a
proprietary loyalty club and exciting contest sections.
