Blogpaper launches its first free newspaper

On paper one of the defining characteristics of a blog would seem to be that it is not on paper.

But in this rapidly changing media world, even that appears to be changing.



A new freesheet that consists entirely of blogs pulled off the web by popular demand - without the help of an editor - has now launched.

Unlike the national newspapers the Blogpaper has no editor and no team of journalists; instead all of the articles and photos have been submitted by bloggers to a website and the users vote for the content they would most like to appear in print - a process known as crowd sourcing.

You can see the first edition here.
