Well as part of my study into hyperlocal blogging and the possibility of making a multi-media blog a paying model, I've taken up Twitter.
Whilst Twitter penetration is low in NZ, this microblogging tool I believe is a quick way to build an audience based on headline news, and as such I'm willing to experiment with this, as an affordable way to fail or succeed.
No doubt Twitter will move toward a paid model soon, with great analytics etc. Its with these tools I hope to find which stories stick, and warrant greater in depth storylines supported with a blog with video content. This leading to supporting a hyperlocal blog built around viewers interests aggregated from Twitter
I suppose this is a bit about face, from other models and blogs that have been established, but with Twitter in its infancy in NZ, I hope to use the local news headline approach of twitter with local content to justify the time behind the blog (get it?).
Anyway its early days, the right to fail is the concept behind it, and its never been this cheap, EVER.
Have a look in, especially if your an expat Nzer who use to live in the Hutt Valley.
