In April, Topix began sharing the reins of our editing tools with our users, and we have been blown away, not only by the enthusiasm of our newly forged editors, but with the talent and expertise they have brought to their respective Topix news pages. Now, with well over 1000 editors, it is time to create a knowledge bank for those editors as we grow and learn from each other in this unprecedented undertaking.

This blog will offer pointers on how to make the most of our editing platform as well as suggestions for how to get creative and take your news page to the next level. There is already a lot of good information in the hopper and we are excited to create a kind of one-stop-shop for editor resources at Topix. If there are particular areas you feel could use some illumination, feel free to send topic requests to us at editorfeedback (at) topix.com Announcements about changes in the editing platform and new features will also happen right here. In other words, stick around and you will be the first to know about all the cool stuff as it happens.

Along with providing tips and tricks, the Topix Editors Blog is also where we will be shining the spotlight on some of our outstanding editors, so they can share their magic methods for making their news pages sing. Get out there and show us your stuff, and we may be shining that spotlight on YOU.
