Shirky - end of audience
Clay Shirkys work focuses on the rising usefulness of
networks -- using peer-to-peer
sharing, wireless, software for social creation, and open-source
development (participatory media). New technologies are enabling new kinds of
cooperative structures to flourish as a way of getting things done in
business, science, the arts etc. This is an alternative to centralized and institutional structures which he see's as limiting. In his writings and speeches he has argued that "a
group is its own worst enemy."
Screencast - Daily mail comparison
Another interesting feature on their online website is that the daily mail has a comments section and an email for the audience to participate in creating content, the comments are valuable for the daily mail as they can see the audiences response and can create future content to suit the audience or edit the existing content, which they cannot do with their print papers. The participatory media highlights how the daily mail are trying to get to know their audience better so that they can create content which will interest them.
Furthermore features on the daily mail website such as links to other stories and topics, makes the site more navigable for the audience so they can view stories they want to see and ignore the content that doesn't interest them.
