The International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) launched a new version of its Web site, IJNet.org, on Wednesday. The site, which in a release says “connects an unparalleled global network of journalists and media development organizations through cutting-edge social networking tools, discussion spaces, forums and news stories on worldwide journalism activities,” has been redesigned and boasts an improved interface highlighting topics of interest.

Individual journalists and organizations can create profiles in which they can highlight their work, post news, and invite others to join their network. Users can search for each other by e-mail address, IJNet screen name, location, organization, area of expertise, language, or other information. Users who have set up profiles can join discussions, post to IJNet Answers, and take advantage of the site’s interactive features.

In addition, the site’s Global Forum for Media Development (GFMD) section offers the latest industry news to its 400 member organizations, the media assistance community, development professionals, and funders worldwide.

“This new platform enables journalists and media trainers to collaborate in exciting, new ways,” ICFJ President Joyce Barnathan said in a statement. “For the first time, they will be able to link directly to one another, sharing resources and spurring collaboration.”

IJNet is sponsored by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Open Society Institute, the National Endowment for Democracy, the Eurasia Foundation, the New Eurasia Foundation and friends of ICFJ.

In order to remain nationally competitive in marketing Savannah and the state of Georgia, SEDA partnered with Atlanta-based BinaryBus to create a one of a kind, customized program that features available property in Savannah/Chatham County from 5,000 square feet to 1,400 acres. SEDA is one of only few economic development agencies in the country to offer such a customized database that allows users to review available properties and provides demographic and business analysis with the ability to save the results in a personal portfolio.

“As the field of economic development evolves and the economy changes, SEDA fully intends to keep Savannah in the forefront,” Mr. Lynn Pitts, Sr. Vice President of SEDA said.  “We pride ourselves on staying ahead of the curve, and these types of adjustments are the natural progression of our services.”

Harnessing the power of web-based GIS (geographic information systems), users can search from among these properties, create portfolios, view a dynamically changing map, and print site-specific information and demographic reports.  Search criterion includes square footage, acreage, ceiling height, distance to interstate/seaport/airport, rail access, utilities requirements, etc.

Since site location consultants – the professionals who advise companies looking to relocate or expand their operations – increasingly make first cuts based solely on information they gather online, it is critical to place Savannah/Chatham County’s community and business attributes at their fingertips.  The SEDA property database is exportable to State economic development agencies.

“SEDA’s program is one of very few custom made Web 2.0 applications that runs on AreGIS Server 9.3, which is cutting-edge mapping software,” said Ron Mulberry, president of BinaryBus. “This definitely gives them an advantage during the site-selection stage.”

SEDA currently maintains a database of over 120 properties in Chatham County and works closely with Savannah brokers and landowners to keep the information accurate.

The SEDA staff spent nearly a year working with Shannon James, LLC, Smack Dab Studios, and Paragon Design Group to design and build the new SEDA site.  SEDA plans to promote the website nationally and internationally throughout the summer, beginning with a website launch event for allies, partners and clients based in Atlanta.
