The Daily Mirror started some 16 blogs last year, apparently. They look pretty good, features-wise, with all the proper comments, bookmarks and tag-cloud features you’d expect from a modern newspaper blog…
As Martin Stabe puts it "Whoa. When did this happen?" Certainly it passed me by… and not surprisingly given their low profile. No links that I could see on the front page of the website…
Shame the Independent, from the same Trinity Mirror stable can’t innovate in this way… Charles Arthur gives them a well earned roasting on his blog.
I gave the Independent’s Travel section a very low score when I reviewed it for the current issue of Travelution (here’s a link to the electronic edition). The attitude of the Independent to social media is one Charles rightly compares to King Canute. It’s almost scornful of social media.
