Bringing the Online Model to Print Publications
 

Dunstan has called our attention to an interesting concept that turns the concepts you normallly think about for online consumption inside out (or upside down) with a concept called Frogpress.

The idea behind it is to create a free offline newspaper that is totally generated from content submitted by online users. Anyone can submit articles, and freedom of topics is welcomed - no registration is needed and anything from one line to a full essay can be submitted.

The term "power to the people" isn't limited only to the online world anymore. This may seem a bit of going in reverse to the trend, but makes a lot of sense for those who prefer to experience that smell of newsprint in the morning.

What The World Needs Now
 

All we really need now is to a Newsback feed to these new "Print-on-Demand" newspapers so that people in coffeeshops the world over can have a serving of earthy news with their latte in the morning.
