I really enjoyed your post, I thought it was well written and thought out. I agree with you wholeheartedy with your contention that the said Supermarket chain is missing out on an opportunity to gain free publicity in a local context filled with increasing competition in the fuel-retail market. But anyway, again great post and hopefully I too will serve you at this unnamed supermarket chain owned petrol station.

Kind Regards,

Altug Kayi

Macdonald from New Media Mogul – "[The IOC plans] to let athletes maintain personal blogs surrounding the games, provided they don’t comment on the performances of other athletes or upload audiovisual content they have created of an Olympic event. Speaking more generally, it would appear that the IOC considers blogging to be ‘a legitimate form of personal expression’ rather than journalism." [...]

]]> Comment on The discursive nature of citizen journalism by Zac http://hughmacdonald.net/2008/02/13/the-discursive-nature-of-citizen-journalism/#comment-3 Sat, 16 Feb 2008 05:18:39 +0000 http://hughrjmacdonald.wordpress.com/?p=7#comment-3 Interesting piece of analysis and well compiled. You’re correct in saying that anyone can submit an article to The Roar (www.theroar.com.au) – we encourage this.

We see the Roar as reaching sportsfans who know their sports so well they’re no longer prepared to simply consume sports articles from the mainstream channels. They want to comment on, elaborate, debate and expand articles. And even write their own.

So while we combine experts and newswire, this provides a sports platform for the real sports debate to form around.

I enjoyed your article. Great stuff.
