Le projet ElectronLibre est né le 7 décembre 2007. L'idée fondatrice est de réunir sur un même site un collectif de journalistes ; issus d'autres médias, pigistes ou bien débutants. Les sujets abordés dans les articles suivent au plus près l'actualité. Les thématiques vont des médias classiques à l'Internet en passant par les industries de la culture, comme la musique et le cinéma, mais tout aussi les jeux vidéos ou les nouvelles tendances.

Giving site visitors an easy-to-find, easy-to-use “report an error” button is a way of saying to them that you care about accuracy, you want to know when you make errors, and you’re conscientious about fixing them. It’s like putting a “you can trust this” badge on everything you publish.
