Gooya

Gooya ( _fa. گویا) is a Persian-language website started by the Belgium-based journalist, Farshad Bayan, in 1998.

At that time, there were a few Iran-related websites and most Persian media did not have on-line editions. Manually-prepared electronic copies of popular Persian journals (prepared by Bayan), such as the magazine Payam-e Emrooz, was a popular feature of Gooya. With the wave of Iranian websites and weblogs in the following years, their links appeared on Gooya and the website remained one of the most hit Persian websites.

Gooya started its own independent News Section, Gooya News, a few years later. Analyses by journalists and political figures, with political opinions ranging from far left to far right, is an exclusive feature of Gooya News among Persian websites.

Gooya-UK is a totally separate website from Gooya. Gooya (UK) was launched in November 2005 by an independent team of Iranian freelancers in London to facilitate the access to Persian media resources for Iranian speaking people all over the world. The website is very media oriented and provides direct access to Persian television and radio channels online.

Gooya (UK) provides some useful Links for Iranian news and media as well as some popular Internet Tools.

Gooya (UK) launched a new section for World TV channels in June 2006 with comprehensive lists of television channels in different countries.
