Top CyberJournalist stories of 2004
Here is CyberJournalist.net's annual list of the top online journalism stories of the year. Unlike past years, this year's list is chosen by the readers, based on the most popular entries on CyberJournalist.net in 2004.
Top CyberJournalist.net Stories of 2004
1. Bloggers cover political conventions (Multiple related entries)
2. Blogs post exit polls
3. Sites create great presidential campaign interactives (Specifically: Great presidential candidate selectors and The best campaign interactives
4. Few newspaper readers visit papers' sites
5. NYTimes.com launches blog-like features
(Also see this entry in which Times reporter Andrew Revkin discusses his blog-like diary.)
6. California paper undertakes ambitious participatory journalism project
7. Blogs still rare, but foster community
8. Could Google News be sued for libel?
9. CNN.com: More than 6 million paid video subscribers
10. NakedNews, porn goes wireless
Interestingly, the Net's role in helping uncover the CBS News document fraud didn't even make the top 100.
Several of the top 10 most popular entries of the year were non-news stories that are worth mentioning, as their popularity is an encouraging sign about the continuing interest in improving online journalism.
The third overall most-popular entry of the year was "101 ways to improve your news site," not surprising since it rose to the top of the Daypop Top 40 earlier this year.
Two other CyberJournalist.net classics - originally posted about 4 years ago -- also continue to be among the site's most popular posts:
• Online Storytelling Forms
• A dozen online writing tips
• A Blogger's Code of Ethics
