DTI Web Publishing System
DTI has created a Web Publishing System that brings print and Internet publishing together in an integrated environment. It puts the control of publishing editorial content on Web pages into the hands of the same skilled editors who produce the printed pages. And it does this in such a way that the print and electronic editions of the newspaper can strengthen and compliment each other.
It will be used to educate the next generation of journalists and to
evaluate emerging technological advancements that may affect how news is
gathered and disseminated in the convergent marketplace of print, radio,
television and online media.
DTI has taken the first seat on the Newsplex Directorate by contributing
to development and construction of the prototype Newsplex micro-newsroom.
DTI and IFRA inaugurate a prestigious industry-academic consortium that is
underwriting the facility for training, demonstration and research in
next-generation, cross-media newshandling methods and technologies.
As a contributor to the $1.5 million center, DTI will have a seat on the
facility's advisory board, take a prominent spokesman role on the future of
the industry, and receive preferential access to services and programs.
