New free Boston daily written by bloggers
Cory Doctorow: Jason sez, “This week, Boston Now, a new free daily newspaper launched in Boston to compete with the Metro. The paper is called Boston Now and will rely heavily on bloggers and user-submitted photos for content, with very limited content from the wire services and traditional full-time journalists.”
LinkIn the name of relevancy, BostonNOW is handing huge swaths of its editorial pages to its readers. Instead of bemoaning competition from bloggers, they’re proposing a true pro-am partnership, promising to publish the work of any blogger who’s willing and literate enough to work with them.
