Welcome to Adlon Hotel in Stockholm
Part of the cut and thrust of publishing involves seizingevery opportunity to boast that you have more readers than your competitors. For example, Swedish media mag Dagens Media is singing its own praises: for the first time last week, ithad more visitors to its web site than arch-rival Resum. According to the KIA Index, Dagens Media had 44,297 visitors to its web site, compared to Resum's 38,665. By comparison, The Local had 69,464 unique visitors last week. We're not ranked by KIA, but that would have put us in a perfectly respectable 90th position on the index, just above Affrsvrlden(67,693), Ny Teknik(67,050) andStureplan(54,048). Just thought we'd mention it. King of Sweden's web sites is still Aftonbladet. The tabloid's site recorded 3,826,298 unique visitors in week 46 (November 13th-19th).
Debunking bank report
It probably hasn't been a lot of fun to be in banking over the last six months, what with the credit crisis, subprime-mortgage mess, and rising loan defaults. At least a banker can celebrate the opening of a new branch once in a while, right? William E. Brown couldn't yesterday. The head of Citibank's 21 branches in the Philadelphia market spent part of the day denying a report that raised doubt about the giant company's plans for the region. Yesterday's Wall Street Journal said Citigroup Inc. was "abandoning a push" to open up to 100 branches a year across the United States. The story said Citigroup would focus on areas where its market share of deposits was strong or growing, such as Boston, Miami, New York and San Francisco. Comparing growth in Boston with Philadelphia, the Journal said bank executives were "pleased with Boston branches, but are less impressed with the Philadelphia experiment, according to one person familiar with the situation." Not true, Brown said.
