Liverpool Daily Post blogs interactive edition via website

The Liverpool Daily Post is today giving its readers a chance to actively influence the content of tomorrow's paper.

The team at the Trinity Mirror morning title is hosting a live blog throughout the day updating visitors on which stories are breaking.

Anyone can log on and add suggestions or comments for the content and design of the paper and website as well as put questions to journalists.

There will also be live videos from the newsroom so visitors can watch the team hold conference this afternoon and conduct interviews.

The live blog, to be updated throughout the day by staff, started at 7am today and will continue until tomorrow's edition hits the presses in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

Daily Post editor Mark Thomas said: "The success of the live blog during our local election coverage proved that our readers enjoy being a part of the newsgathering process, asking questions and sharing information.

"Now, we want to take this a stage further and invite people to get involved in the production of their newspaper.

"Giving them the opportunity to comment via a live blog and streaming, and to actually 'attend' our news conference seemed the next logical step.

"I'm sure a lot of people will be surprised at the decision to make our next day's stories public before they are published, but our readers are intelligent, questioning people whose input will enhance our newsgathering operation.

"I look forward to sharing my thoughts with them and hearing their own views as the day progresses."
