The Online News Association has launched a new, improved Web site at Journalists.org, designed to better serve and connect its nearly 1,800 members across the globe. The site is the first step to giving ONA members — leading-edge journalists from around the world — new ways to share ideas, content, technology and news.
Here’s what you’ll find when you log in:
- Networking features, including discussion groups that connect members by region and area of interest, giving you the ability to have one-on-one conversations and to chat in real time.
- An easy-to-navigate membership directory – searchable by name, type of organization, areas of expertise, and more – enabling you to more easily network with people with common interests.
- A Career Center that allows members to post and search job openings.
- A new training section with innovative digital presentations tagged by topic, source and medium. This section features videotaped sessions from ONA’s sold-out 2008 annual conference, with tips on the latest techniques in multimedia storytelling from the New York Times, Washington Post, USA TODAY and the BBC, among others.
