SMPLE Community

Tonight I dropped into the SMPLE: Work for a Magazine meetup in Nexus Art Cafe in the Northern Quarter. SMPLE is an online magazine based in Vancouver, Canada, born from a tech company, focussing on art, culture, music and lifestyle. Organiser Josh Potts is taking the lead in the UK, and sat out in the garden of Nexus he described how he's looking for contributors for the 'cinematic' project: as well as written content he's hoping to include video documentaries on a range of topics, with 'no mandate on what we can and can't do.'

The project is all about empowerment, collaboration and even some cash rewards. It's early days, but I'm hoping that the community will give an opportunity for people like me to get our writing seen by a bigger audience than just our own blog readers.
