Over at Mandag Morgen we soft-launched our new blog Etterretninger today. Our original twist: We have had Etterretninger (“intelligence”, as in military intelligence) as a regular feature in our printed weekly magazine since January 2004. Now we turn the process around: We publish the news items as we find them (mostly on the web), and pick the best ones to publish in the magazine. Hoping, of course, to reach some new potential readers, while participating in the Conversation. Have a look if you understand the language, or just have a look anyway!
I found this site through the technorati search for the Etterretninger site.
I just want to hail this initiative. I am enthusiastic about the entry of institutions like Mandag Morgen to the blogosphere, and I hope that this will drive forward the development here in Norway and elsewhere.
Now all we need to develop is a Norwegian Technorati service and better ping sites to further the sphere.
I hope you are pleased with Etterretninger and that it will not be just a short-termed experiment in the new media.
best,
Raymond M. Kristiansen
