The need for a site consultation and reference on issues of communication, is still latent in Ecuador. While there are some contributions, both from private agencies as to build physical or virtual repositories, they have simply submit basic contact information and often outdated. With a sample of over 1000 media access know its form and substance, itself, distributed morphology and corporate legal organization, location, content, scope, and services provided. It is an informative approach to reality in the country and is part of the macro research called "Map of Ecuador communication".
