"And since things move at the speed of light in our city by the sea, blink and you'll miss something. That's where The Caprican comes in."
The Caprican was a daily periodical of Caprican origin in existence at least 58 years before the Fall of the Twelve Colonies . It ran news, entertainment, cultural, financial, and sports articles, as well as editorial columns and a section entitled "Playing the Field " (a reference to Pyramid ), where readers could write in to the paper for advice on love, dating, and marriage.

The Caprican is available as an online companion to the events of Caprica , releasing stories that pertain to the plot both before and after episodes air, as well as giving background on culture seen in the series. It is available for viewing on the web, as well as an App for Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. A five-month publishing hiatus ended on September 29, but the pause had been explained in-universe on July 27:
... the truth is that certain interests in the higher echelons of Caprica City society took some issue with a few of the things we'd published in the past few months. We won't go into the gory details, but we were unfortunately forced to cease and desist while the guys with the briefcases sorted things out ... We've received word that the red tape is beginning to clear, and so we'll be returning to action in the very near future ...
The blog's article titles, fictional dates and real-world dates of publication in 2010 are listed below. The fictional dates were calculated apparently by adding a variable number of days to the dates of publication. For example, the articles published between March 2 and April 30 use dates of YR42 which are three days later than the corresponding publication dates, so March 2 became Martius 5 and April 30 became Maius 3.
