The Cuba blogosphere community already has a digital magazine that now comes to light in the networks. The group of young bloggers in the country is committed to reach as many people as possible and for this, since their meeting at the Martin Luther King Memorial Center last July, they decided to create this regular publication.<\/p>\n
In its making work a group of young bloggers, elected by the community, who are responsible for collecting and selecting the texts. With over 10 members from various parts of the country and different professions, this editorial board is coordinated by newly graduated journalist Rafael Gonz\u00e1lez Escalona-editor of the blog The Microwave-, who spoke with OnCuba.<\/p>\n
“It was agreed to make a digital magazine-for the legal conditions of the press in Cuba we cannot aspire to more, not even that, where to include both the Cuban blogosphere activity and other issues of interest to its members. It doesn\u2019t have preset sections even if we give certain thematic coherence to each issue. “<\/p>\n
Due to the continuous interpretations of what the “Cuban blogosphere” is Rafael explains that it refers to “an ecumenical term that includes anyone approaching Cuban life from the blogs.”<\/p>\n
Designed entirely to read on a computer, the design stands out for its freshness and the use of the web\u2019s visual resources as the profiles of the different bloggers represented in the publication.<\/p>\n
The selection criteria were defined by the editorial team, several meetings and wines or teas in between. According to Rafael, “basically, they will be well-written texts and that were not (extremely) offensive or aggressive to any human group or belief. Beyond that, any text is not excluded a priori, though we always do a process in which we inform the other members of Blogosfera Cuba (not to confuse with Cuban blogosphere) on which we select and listen to any suggestions made \u200b\u200bby them. “<\/p>\n
This publication of Cuban bloggers is a unique experience to date of brotherhood and unity of common interests of people advocates a different, better Cuba, and that from the blogs or participation spaces that gradually emerge, rebuilds and reinvents itself as a much more participatory society.<\/p>\n
“The importance that I see is the same that I can see to any social group that articulates a coherent speech and make it visible, Rafael Gonz\u00e1lez-Escalona says, no matter whether they are bloggers, taxi drivers, or Seventh-day Adventists. That is, make conversation among a group, and attempt a greater dialogue between that group and the rest of society is a precious adventure. If to this is added that they are trying to move discussions to a universe almost unknown to millions of Cubans such as the Internet, it is understood that a magazine like this could be a beautiful utopia. “<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
