Blog Review: The Corante

October 1st, 2008 · 6:42 pm @ Adspaceworld Editor  -  No Comments

I had checked out an article on Google about Reuters and Guardian’s editor systems ( ie: Just hwo they worked with getting content, creating specialized features etc. ), and had found the article above. This article talked about Geert Linnebank’s speech at a conference last year.

Linnebank, a senior advisor to CEO at Reuters, had proposed that to keep up with the conditions of the changing media markets, to seek out better ways to engage the audience. The site the article was on, Corante.com, has a great deal of content for people who want to immerse themselves in thoughtful analysis about the media and news industry, its past, present, and future.

Some of the articles I browsed through had been written by Susan and Kevin Anderson, the latter a current editor and feature producer of BBC. All the articles are based on media, science, and its interactions with the web, social structures, and the journalism industry.

It is very varied, with a lot of authors and a lot of content. The only true qualm I have about this site ( becasuse its a big one ), is that the navigation is horrible.

Nonetheless, if you can get around it, you will find some great resources on the media industry, and this information could make you a better publisher, blogger, and/or website developer.
