The SoLoMo DEN Thursday, February 23rd.


The Lowry was host to a Digital Editors Network meetup in which the main theme was the exploration of new opportunities and innovation when combining Social networking, Local news and the Mobile platform.

Mobile doesn't seem to appear very much on the publishing horizon but everywhere else it seems to be the next big thing to exploit for business opportunities or worry about depending on where you stand on this ever-changing landscape of change in the media.

Three presentations particularly piqued my interest. The first was a presentation by Sarah Hartley of the Guardian  Media Group. According to the website, "n0tice.com is a new version of a very old idea – a community noticeboard. Users can post reports, offers or events for everyone in their area to see or set up their own noticeboards – become ‘noticeboard owners’. The website focuses on three areas: news, events and offers. Their main selling point is that all the content whether it be news, events or adverts can be filtered according to your location.
