WRITING CULTURE 2012: Film, Food & Beyond

The New York Times’ social media is doing a wonderful job on covering the National Democratic Convention. Facebook has been a great social network for them to present about the Democratic Convention and perceives people’s reaction on it.

In last week, The New York Times mostly posts on facebook about Democratic National Convention in Charlotte and Bill Clinton, Obama  and Mitt Romney’s convention speeches. I think, The New York Times has been successfully using facebook to engage people and to continue breed the social network by people’s participation. And People are responding regularly and enthusiastically on Times’ facebook site, giving their comments on the convention, and most importantly, leaving their opinion in positive and negative both way.

Multimedia “round-up”

I have been always impressed by The New York Times’ multimedia coverage. I feel that they like to provide effective pictures, slideshows and videos to not only in their news paper and online news paper, also in blogs, twitter and facebook. As a consumer, their multimedia coverage is able to tell a story to me by itself. Although most of their multimedia cover on Obama and Democratic Convention, they also provide some coverage on Romney.
