Newsroom folks describe Woodbridge InJersey as hyperlocal. That's a funny new word that really means something quite simple and familiar: news.
News about your street in Iselin. News about your child's school in Colonia. News your downtown office coworkers talk about at the water cooler. News you discuss at the dinner table in your home, whether it be in Fords, Port Reading, Sewaren or in any of the township's 10 distinct neighborhoods.
It's all news that matters to you, although it may never make it onto the 10 o'clock news. But that's what makes a site like Woodbridge InJersey all the more important.
This blog is powered by the resources of the Home News Tribune and MyCentralJersey.com. But its most important contributors will be readers like you.
This is the place to spread the word about street fairs, garage sales and PTA fundraisers.
This is the place to post and share your photos, videos and stories.
This is the site to discuss property taxes, pot holes and politics.
We invite you to join us. Registering is free and will take only a minute.
Then you'll be on your way to joining the conversation.

Who’s Behind InJersey?
The site is administered by the writers and editor from Gannett New Jersey's news teams — including APP.com, CourierPostOnline.com, MyCentralJersey.com, DailyRecord.com, and TheDailyJournal.com. What this means is that content from InJersey will often find its way into your local newspaper. But, perhaps even more important, our team trained reporters can help open doors throughout the community for citizen journalists who may need a little help getting to the bottom of a story.
We look forward to meeting you, hearing your stories, and being your trusted source for community-specific information.
And of course, if you have any suggestions for how we can improve this site and make it more useful to the community, please email us.
Most important, we hope you'll register with the site so that you can post your own news, photos, and other content. Signing up is easy — two minutes, tops! — and before you know it you'll be an official InJersey correspondent!
