Editor's Corner

The Council of Communications and Media is not just about understanding the media messages our families are experiencing, but the technology producing those messages. Websites are one form of powerful technology - and we launched our website last year. But, blogs are even more powerful.

Blogs are online journals and can be used for many reasons - to promote ideas or editorials; to promote causes; to inform others of articles. The uses of a blog are endless. And, unlike a website, a blog offers a very cool advantage- it can be updated very easily and quickly.

Wanting to keep pace with the technology our families are part of, and wanting to find new ways to give you the latest child health media information, we decided the COCM needed a blog. I'm thrilled to annoucn that in May 2008, the COCM blog officially launched. The blog is still in its infancy but is growing fast and will soon be a toddler blog before long. Check it out and drop me a line with ideas for your own guest post!

And, this is just the beginning! We have many new and exciting media ideas for the coming months that we will be adding to our online niche all in an effort to be the best Council on Communications and Media we can be.

.My virtual door is always open to your ideas and suggestions by email. Stop by any time!

Dr. Gwenn
COCM Online Editor-In-Chief
