Blogging Norfolk 2009 - Introduction

Hello and welcome to Blogging Norfolk 2009, a collaborative project between Writers' Centre Norwich and BBC Norfolk as part of Arts Council England's Made In England scheme.

The aim of this project is to capture a snapshot of Norfolk through a variety of web-based social media on one day: April 23rd. Contributions from members of the public will be invited through Twitter, blogging, Flickr, and email and be used to build a BBC digital map of the region. See here for more details about what we'll be up to on the day itself.

Public contributions will first be used to populate the map above. It is a 'clearing space', as it were, and a conceptual aid for those wishing to take part. These contributions will then be selected from in order to build the BBC digital map, hosted at BBC Norfolk. Both maps will also feature a variety of work from commissioned writers and well-known figures from the Norfolk region.

This blogsite is intended as a place to find information about how to get involved and ask questions -- and a space through which to organise and view the various aspects of the event.

Please read the 'Using Flickr', 'Using Twitter', 'Email Contributions', 'Blogging', and 'Tag Your Content' posts (see list on the right under 'contents & information') to find out how to send us your content, or how to make it discoverable for the Blogging Norfolk 2009 boffins.

Still confused? Perhaps attend one of our workshops on April 15th...
