New York Times launches user-generated features
The New York Times has launched its first regular user-generated content features.
On Wednesday, The Times launched a Share and View Photo Gallery on its Collectible Cars site that allows members to post photos and personal stories of their collectible cars and rate and post comments to other members’ collectible car submissions.
On Thursday, The Times announced that couples who submit announcements to the Weddings/Celebrations pages of The New York Times will be able to submit their own How We Met homemade videos to NYTimes.com/weddings.
However, only couples whose announcements have been selected to appear in the Weddings/Celebrations pages of the newspaper will have their How We Met videos run at NYTimes.com/weddings...
More details from The Times:
Videos cannot be longer than three minutes and must be submitted to The Times no later than two weeks prior to the couple’s wedding date. Because the goal of How We Met is to provide a glimpse into the beginning of lifelong commitments, videos should be appropriate for a general audience and focus solely on the couple’s relationship.A Times staff member will review all video submissions and, if approved, the submission will appear at NYTimes.com/weddings on the same Sunday that the couple’s wedding announcement is scheduled to run in the paper. As with submissions to the Weddings and Celebrations pages, there are no assurances that a submitted video will appear on the Web site.
The Video Vows that currently appear on NYTimes.com are produced by The Times and will continue to be featured at the discretion of Times editors, separately from How We Met.
Readers interested in submitting a How We Met video should go to NYTimes.com/weddings for guidelines, including required technical specifications.
