Submitting Articles

Social bookmarking and community-edited news websites such as Digg and Delicious let their users share and discuss online content. Users can bookmark, comment or vote on stories and will read content based on the opinions of other members. facebook is a recent online phenomenon and one of the fasting growing social networking websites in the UK (August '07).

When you come across a story you think others would find interesting you submit a link to one of these sites, assigning it to categories or labelling it with tags (keywords). Response Source’s Press Release Wire offers a "post to" facility for two of the most widely used sites to make it easy for you to submit stories you find interesting. We also provide further links on this page to other community news sites which you can use in a similar way.
