Funny...I just read Charlene Li's post on Yahoo sending her an announcement about their new personalized search and feeling like much the tool of Yahoo's PR Dept. Moments later I received an email from blog service provider 21 Publish about working with Amnesty International Germany on a new collaborative multi-site blog. Much like Charlene, I feel like a tool; but I too will take one for the team and promote the cause. Here's your free PR (next time, show me the money!):
Amnesty International Germany has chosen 21Publish to build a fully customized blogging community where the local amnesty chapters can set up and run their individual blogs. Local groups of the human rights organization will enjoy the benefits of easy web publishing and communication while all blogs have a standardized design, so that they can easily be recognized as being part of ai.
"The participation of our local groups is an extremely important part of our battle for human rights. With 21publish we will be able to provide a voice on the Internet to all of our local groups and to strengthen amnesty’s presence on the Internet” said Klaus H. Walter, amnesty international. “We selected 21Publish because it allows to conveniently manage a service for hundreds of weblogs with no programming, no installation and no maintenance cost on our side.”
