Creative Weblogging boosts network to 50 sites
The network now has 50 specialist blogs covering everything from business and technology to health and sport.
The latest additions include Nanotechbuzz, written by a team of US nanotechnology researchers, and fashion blog Coolpicking.com written by the development director of a New York film and acting studio.
Creative Weblogging's strategy is to provide a platform for good blogging and citizen journalism. Its sites are maintained by more than 60 paid bloggers with additional content from guest writers, known as 'creative reporters'.
Reporters can contribute text, audio or video and are paid US$10 for 1,000 page views.
