Ah! It took months of waiting, but the long awaited Teresa Masterson/MySpace/NBC 10 mashup is finally here! Yes, DigPhilly launched late last week, with pretty much everything you expected, although the design is decent.
NBC 10, though, did a little promotion of its own with a whole story about DigPhilly, including person-on-the-street interviews.
“You try to Google something and you have to sort through 80 million pages of whatever, so this is exactly what you need,” Matt Seeker, of Media, said.
Digphilly.com is a social networking and city guide Web site that was launched this week out of NBC10’s offices. It has five options from which to select: learn, do, share, find and shop.
“I think potentially you are going to see stuff here you might not find anywhere else,” Drew Salamone, manager of Interactive Promotions and New Media, said.
The “learn” section includes local feature stories that may not be in the mainstream media.
“There are very few rules about what we cover,” John Davidson, digital content producer, said.
Digphilly, attacking mainstream media from the inside. The NBC 10 report also featured a comment from Alexandra Trignani, of Manayunk, who noted the website was helpful, local and fun. Sounds like a tagline to me.
