www.cluj4allwomen - Interactive Journal

Cluj4AllWomen is an online interactive magazine created using the "crowd sourcing journalism" paradigm. This paradigm consist on allowing the members of the community (in this case women) to create a journal and to express their ideas. The community votes on the published information and creates a rank of all the ad-hoc writers.

Each writer starts with publishing an article that needs to be approved by a "moderator". The moderator is an experienced writer who became a moderator after successfully publishing a specific number of articles. (in this case 5)

Everybody who successfully publishes 5 articles in the Journal becomes a moderator and does not require approval anymore, i.e. their article gets published automatically. The site promotes itself using viral marketing techniques.

The most successful writers are presented on a weekly TV show on NCN which attracts new users. The online journal is sending new viewers to the NCN TV, by specifying the NCN Cluj4AllWomen TV Show schedule.

At the end of the year, the most read and voted articles are published in a printed book of the most successful writers, together with a "who's who" like of directory.

Cluj4AllWomen is a sub-community of the city portal www.cluj4all.com, and also attracts new visitors to the portal through "invite a friend" functionality.
