Social media news rooms – A few examples
This morning I have been doing some research for a large well-known consumer technology client which shall remain nameless. Anyway the research was to look into the many different social media newsrooms which are already out there.
A social media newsroom basically offers a lot more to the user than a traditional corporate newsroom. The user can be anyone from a blogger, journalist or just someone interested in the subject matter.
A social media newsroom usually provides items such as news releases, photography, RSS feeds, blogs, media coverage, podcasts, vodcasts, tag clouds and lots of sharing and bookmarking tools.
I have posted before about the growing importance of social media newsrooms and I think we are going to see more and more consumer brands using these as digital influencers become more important
Here are some of the social media newsrooms which I have found while searching the internet, some are obviously better than others. However, please feel free to notify me of any others which you come across.
- Wolfstar
- Virgin Media
- Shift Communications
- Electrolux
- GM Motors
