Evolving Communication

We are seeing some interesting sites come through the Mippin Maker since its launch yesterday: schools, golf societies, fishing sites, tech blogs, organic farming tips from as far as Russia and Argentina. The long tail is alive and well.

Looking at a selection as they came in I was also struck by this post at Weeno Media which looks at the long tail from another and powerful perspective. It is an observation of the first news stream from the recent earthquake in the UK and underlines how individual participation can be just as powerful in certain circumstances as the more established media channels. The first posts from Twitter and Jaiku were quicker and more insightful than those of the large houses thereafter.

Mippin Maker is a tool for all: an especially the 120 million bloggers out there who have something to say. Here is your platform to say it to everyone, wherever they are.

Hey, thanks for the mention. One of the really interesting things that night was that the first reports on on Sky News the TV station was that unconfirmed reports are coming via Jaiku, Twitter etc. We are really seeing a huge turning point in the speed and ways in which information is being delivered to us and the traditional media houses are going to need to get on board.
