More than just a simple revamp of NashvilleZine.com, NashvilleZine.org embodies a new approach to social media. The .com site that I shut down in 2006 was largely reactionary — a response to what I thought was lacking in local media at the time. Since then, I’ve become convinced that establishment media can’t become new web media. The new Zine is a positive assertion that a community can cover and report on itself better than a bureaucratized institution.
