Voiceover notes
What are the advantages of online newspaper sites? After you’ve filmed the newspaper add the following examples to your screencast recording.
•      They are immediate and up to date. When something happens, users can access the news and get regular updates
•      They offer more immediate interactive opportunities, for example there is access to audio-visual clips and opportunities to blog or email opinions (PARTICIPATORY MEDIA) The Daily Mail which has a high percentage of female readers, has had particular success with its online version of Femail with its diet of fashion and gossip.
•      Apps for several newspapers are available for mobile phones and tablets
