Hello!
We opened in beta version. This means that the PublicPost website will continue to change and improve. And you can influence these changes. Please send all comments and suggestions to info@publicpost.ru
The main thing in our project is your opportunity to influence it not only at this very first stage. We create new generation media. The editorial team's task is to find the right balance between professional and citizen journalism. We will try, experiment and come up with new formats together with you.
The life of our country cannot be described solely by federal news, international reports and rare “news from the field”. Russia is very, very big, and we want to show how it lives - all of it, from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok . Therefore, we made a separate page for each region of Russia. And all important events are displayed on a general map of the country .
But it is impossible to create a real picture of how people live outside the Moscow Ring Road only through the editorial staff. Therefore, we invite all caring people living in different cities of Russia to take part in the creation of our website.
It is also important that the news and opinions told by professional journalists and our bloggers in the capital and regions are of equal importance to us. You will understand this by the way our site is built. In the central column you will find editorial materials about the main socio-political events in the country and the world. Whereas the left column consists entirely of blogs. Becoming our blogger is very simple. To do this, you just need to register on the site and follow our rules.
However, this does not mean that text of any content can end up on PublicPost blogs.
PublicPost is a resource with primarily socio-political content. If you have witnessed or participated in a socially important event or incident: a plane crash, fire, flood, train collision, spontaneous rally - please write about it on our website. It is very likely that you will be the first to report important news to the world - without embellishment and without cuts.
It is important for us to hear the opinions of specialists about what is happening in the field of their professional activities. We encourage doctors and health workers to write about the reform of the healthcare system in Russia, the state of hospitals, initiatives of local and federal authorities, etc. Teachers can comment on reforms in the field of education, the Unified State Exam. Seismologists - earthquakes in Russia and the world.
Write and send photos about how the election campaign was going in your city, about the condition of federal highways and railways. You should not write except on abstract and philosophical topics about the fate of the world and the future of Russia. For this purpose, the site provides a commenting system.
PublicPost is a place for discussion. Among our bloggers you will find, among other things, people responsible for making decisions in the country. We want there to be a constructive dialogue between you and them about the problems in Russia.
Each user of the PublicPost website can become a participant in our Rating. Moreover, this applies to both those who write blogs and those who only leave comments on materials on the site. The Top 5 topics, blogs and news include the most popular materials on the site - and this is solely your choice, to which the editors have nothing to do.
This project would not have been possible without the participation and assistance of the editor-in-chief of Echo of Moscow Alexey Venediktov, the Interfax agency and Sberbank of Russia. But it will also not be possible without the participation of each of you...
Let's go!
