- This is a relatively small organization (seven employees, of which, it appears, six deal with content and one with IT, marketing and outreach[1]). They are primarily a Russian-language site. The content is available in a large number of languages (English / Russian / Ukrainian / Armenian / Azerbaijani / Georgian / Kazakh / Kyrgyz / Tajik / Uzbek). IMO this is only sustainable if done by automated translation, which may explain the quality of the English texts.
- They have won two Ippies awards (given to the ethnic and community press by the Center for Community and Ethnic Media at CUNY Graduate School of Journalism), one for content and one for website design.[2]
