BBC's user-generated content nominated for award

For the first time, new site blogs and user-generated content has been nominated for the UK's Association of Online Publishers' innovation award, reports Cyberjournalist.net.

"The shortlist includes: amateur footage of the London bombings submitted to BBC News Online; VNU's Newsgator aggregator, Guardian's blogs and Q4Music.com's blog.

"Their inclusion on the shortlist reflects a move by the UK's premier publishers towards harnessing more user-generated and community-driven content within their online properties," says an AOP press release".
