Building an online neighborhood in Columbus

Wednesday, November 4, 2009

Would you be my neighbor? Mr. Rogers would be proud of this new project by WOSU Public Media and The Columbus Metropolitan Library, built by Interactive Knowledge. The “Columbus Neighborhoods” site will celebrate existing communities and create new ones online. Residents will be able to upload images and tell their stories, as well as create online neighborhood galleries.  Utilizing social media technologies, such as tagging, RSS and comments, residents will also be able to comment on images contributed by other gallery members as well as receive personal updates (via RSS)  when new content is contributed that fits their personal interest or neighborhood profile.  This co-creation concept will help build bridges and connections across cultures within the Columbus metropolitan area. The site is scheduled for launch in February 2010.
