Interactive spaces like online comment sections can be vitriolic, uncivil melees, but they’re also likely home to your most loyal readers. How can news orgs bring users’ valuable insights to light without being overwhelmed by rants and spam?
The Coral Project, a collaboration between Mozilla, The New York Times, and The Washington Post aims to help by creating open-source software and renewed best practices that any publisher could use to create, improve, and maintain interactive spaces.
Greg Barber, The Washington Post’s lead on the project, will join us to give us more details on Coral and hear your stories about what you’d do with UGC if you didn’t have to play troll whack-a-mole.
Please join us for our second meetup in June.
— Tiffany, Matt and Jessica
