6. The web can help… A paper that is delivered by the community through web outreach… Map the pilot online community. Connect with community hubs in partnership with pilot council (facebook groups, GPs, pubs, leaders, reference groups, reading clubs, mum and baby groups…) Get these hubs to agree to Print10 (or 20… or 50…) and distribute – issue freely available and promoted online for anyone else who wishes to print
7. We can do more…. But wait! We can do more… We can create a better, social version of the traditional magazine, and get more people online while we’re at it! Hybrid of Content, include local tweets, facebook discussions, Flickr photo of the week… Encourage readers to get involved in the conversations. Develop web intrigue – something relevant to the reader in a familiar form. Also more appealing to those who wouldn’t usually read a localgov based publication Include local web training sessions for those who want to learn how join the conversation online
