Newspapers to syndicate blog content
This report says “A syndication service that delivers commentary from 600 bloggers for use by newspaper publishers is set for launch, further blurring the lines that divide blogs and mainstream media.”
Having heard last week about what crap payers publishers tend to be for freelance work, the cynic journalist (a new addition to my selection of personalities) scoffs as the publishers scrape the bottom of the barrel for free content rather than pay decent per word rates to their hard working freelancers.
The business owner and innovator in me, however, thinks good on ‘em! They’ve done a TradeMe – if you can’t beat them, buy them!
It’s all very interesting. I’m off to Blogburst to sign up now. Might as well get my blogs some publicity, then I might get paid from the ads.
