Subject: NEW: online-news - Electronic Newspapers and Magazines

   Electronic newspapers and magazines

   Online-news is a new Internet mailing list on the topic of online
   newspapers and magazines.  It will serve as a forum to discuss the
   evolution of newspaper and magazine experiments in electronic
   publishing.  It also will become the place in cyberspace where
   professionals working to design electronic publications of the future
   can meet to get to know each other and exchange ideas.

   Two years ago, there were only a few newspapers and magazines
   operating online services.  Today there are more than 40 newspapers
   and numerous magazines with electronic "editions." Many more --
   perhaps most -- publishers today are taking a serious look at
   opportunities for going digital.

   Online-news will cover the various avenues publishers have taken on
   this journey, from the commercial services -- America Online,
   CompuServe, Delphi and Prodigy -- to independent BBSs, to the
   Internet.

   This is the place to discuss what works and what doesn't, how to
   integrate these services into the newsroom, how to train and recruit
   staff for these new ventures, advertising issues, software, potential
   readership, how to make money with electronic editions, job postings,
   etc.

   WHAT THIS LIST IS *NOT*:
   ------------------------
   Online-news is NOT a general journalism discussion list.  Its subject
   matter is limited to electronic publications.  If you are looking for

   nit at chron.com);  or Journal-Net (International Journalist Network,
   journal-net at planet.org).  Also, alt.journalism on Usenet is a good
   general interest journalism newsgroup.
