I am very excited to announce that Jersey Shore Hurricane News (JSHN) is a partner in the Community Information Needs Project. The objective of the project is to understand, from the ground up, what kind of information people in various kinds of communities need and seek; how and where they find it; and what their concept of an ideal community information source would be.
Since Hurricane Irene, during which JSHN exploded up to 27,000 “likes” on Facebook in the days after I founded it on August 23, 2011, the outlet has evolved into covering news, traffic, and weather throughout NJ — in real-time — but has always embraced its two-way role. Our community of citizen contributors is our greatest asset.
We’re disrupting and changing the way the media operates in New Jersey. I encourage you to come visit the Facebook page and scroll through the last few days of coverage to see how we cover news and actively engage our community.
Come check us out on Facebook and Twitter, and if you are a JSHN contributor, I encourage you to participate in this exciting project!
Thank you.
