The web is mined for, above all things, relevant content and communication. There are social news and bookmarking sites like Digg or Reddit that help users aggregate their favorite web content including articles, links, and news.
And then there are the citizen journalism sites like CNN’s iReport, where users actually submit their own stories and videos for public consumption. CoMagz, a new site, takes the best of both social news networking and citizen journalism and has formed the CoMagazine concept. A CoMagazine, or CoMagz is essentially a magazine made by a community of users. Users submit articles, news and links, or they can write their own column and submit it. Registered users at CoMagz receive their own webpage where they can build a personal profile, contact other users and exchange interests and information. The most popular articles are posted front page and the least popular are thrown out. There’s also a modicum of moderation which allows for more participation in both large and small communities. With CoMagz, everyone gets a chance to participate.
