Newspaper Website Built on Blog Software

| 2 Comments | No TrackBacks

Trinity Mirror's new local site is a blog.:

Trinity Mirror's Buckinghamshire Advertiser has relaunched its web site. It's very cleanly designed. But there's something significant that is unusual about it — it's a blog. The front page is three recent stories presented in reverse-chronological order, with each one allowing comments. There's a list of categories, RSS feeds, and even a tag cloud. Each new upload of a story pings Technorati.

In fact, it's powered by Movable Type. Another piece of proof that the best blogging platforms are fundamentally lightweight, efficient content management solutions.

Image for the day: picture me stroking my (non-existent) goatee, going "veeeery interesting".

Nice scout and another great news for the whole Movable Type Community

Being myself a Weblog Developer and Movable Type Consultant I am delighted that Buckinghamshire Advertiser has chosen this solution

Movable Type is such an excellent publishing platform that you one could customize to suit absolutely any publishing needs

Good move!

Hi there Adam,

This is really good example of a UK news site using Movable Type. Do you know of any others?

Thanks
Jonathan
