Here’s a link to one of the more useful lists I’ve seen for some time: Michele McLellan’s index of new community online news sites in the US. The Reynolds Journalism Institute in Missouri is the host of a conference on these initiatives. If you follow Jay Rosen’s tweets (@jayrosen_nyu), you’ll have already been pelted with micro-announcements.
I’ve seen attempts at a similar list for the UK but nothing quite this full or systematic. If anybody knows of one, please let me know.

For UK sites, have you seen the list and map by Openly Local?
