As a future journalist I always search a good, reliable and serious source of information. As an example of online participant journalism I want to describe a charachteristics of http://www.megapolis.kz/ site. It is the online version of newspaper. The site is more demanded than print version, because it is more productive to owners of site. Why? Because there is going evaluation of posted materials, so the quality of provided information is always in control of readers. Site is more close to official web site of newspapers as NYTimes, however, there are special area for advertisements, some entertainments. Also there are provided many links to other relevant and important information by interest. The headlines of news goes from new to old one due to timeliness. It was the brief description of site.
I can identify this site as participatory journalism site, because there is always support connection between journalists, reporters with potential audience. Among the audience there are experts, politicians and citizens. The site includes its forum: http://www.megapolis.kz/forum/ and the section where provided contact with editor and reporters: http://www.megapolis.kz/feedback.php. The main rules of participation are respect others opinions, first of all respect done work of reporter. To provide the proovements to any kind of comment. Write in an adequate way. One thing that i would like to mention about who and how participate is that anyone can “offer” reporter to write about the self- interested news, for example send a mail about the problem and ask to provide the information or help by announcing such problem and etcetera.
The news is the main goal and objective of this site, so it mainly focuses on providing hard news, daily news and so on. The readers are generally satisfyied with the objectivity of news. It seems to me that reporters have to work much on accuracy of materials. Some of posts are consider sneer to main hero of news, politician or celebrity.
I evaluate the site as high quality, usefull sourse of information.
