At least six listed from this “10 Ways…” were conceived by the multimedia desk and produced in collaboration mostly with Interactive News. Though I do wonder what happened to 4 and 5.
We also produced “Which of Steve Jobs’s Products Mattered Most?” when Jobs passed last year which also solicited user engagement. And I would also add a number of these other interactives that encouraged user engagement:
- Public Opinion and the Occupy Movement
- What’s Your Economic Outlook?
- Mixed America’s Family Trees
- Health Care Conversations
We do appreciate the shout out. And looking forward to pushing reader engagement in the future. Feedback, as always, is welcome.
