Redesigned Chron blogs go live, embrace interactivity
Yesterday, Chronicle tech guru Dwight Silverman posted that the Chronicle would soon be moving its blogs to new software that would allow greater interactivity.
Today, Silverman announces that two of those blogs (his and Kyrie O'Connor's) are now live.
The blogs are on a Movable Type platform, and allow moderated comments and trackback.
Silverman's first post on the new software hints at where the Chronicle may be heading:
What you're seeing here is more than just the Chronicle using a different piece of software for blogging. This is the beginning of our taking a very different stance toward our core mission -- finding out what's going on in the community and letting others know.
The conversion of these blogs are baby steps, but our goal is to turn Houston's news into a conversation.
Here at blogHOUSTON, that's our goal as well.
We sincerely hope that Silverman can draw many more of his colleagues at 801 Texas Avenue into the conversation.
