Innovation Watch: Fast Company Reports On Community Efforts

Edward Sussman, the President of Mansueto Digital and built the new FastCompany.com has responded to my analysis. He’s done a great job addressing the many points I made, and has responded both on my blog and on his site, where I cross posted.

He’s shared some numbers of growth including activity: “We are approaching 1,000 reader posts a day about business topics raised by our journalists” and member involvement: “Members have set up more than 500 blogs about business.”

I’m going to continue to watch Fast Company as a media company who is embracing the social computing aspect of the future and I encourage you to also watch.

Thank you Ed for being so forthcoming, I will watch with great interest.

Update: How timely, Jemina Kiss asks if UGC is viable for news sites.
