What is jump local?
April 1, 2007

jump local allows you to jump from stories in the paper to related web content relevant to your corner of Chicagoland—from highly-localized neighborhood guides to the web's best links on a wide range of topics.

Each day, several articles in the paper will be tagged with the jump local logo. Look at the upper corner of the page to get a quick explanation of what you'll find when you log on to http://jump.suntimes.com.

To support our increased focus on Chicago and its neighborhoods, jump local dials down to the hyper-local level: shedding light on what's in your neighborhood. Read a newspaper article about prostate cancer then go online to find the nearest location for a free PSA screening in your neighborhood.  Flip through a feature about a Humboldt Park coffeehouse then log on to find a cappuccino hotspot near you.

But sometimes the information that matters to you has just as much to do with your life as your address. That's why we're also sorting through the web's seemingly endless sites and filtering out the most relevant ones. Forget lengthy searching; instead jump from newspaper articles about everything from obesity to globetrotting to jump local listings of our favorite local and national web resources on the topic.
