Communicate magazine launches “Words of Wisdom” – an online micro-interview player

• Embedded AudioBoo player enables Communicate magazine to run 30 second interviews with opinion formers from the corporate communications world.
• Up to ten new interviews a week to be posted
• Officially launching on the 23rd September

Communicate magazine has launched “Words of Wisdom”, a unique addition to their website that will provide audio interviews with the leading opinion formers in the corporate communication community. The interviews will be grouped together on Communicate magazine’s home page in a specially-designed player developed by AudioBoo, the audio microblogging tool.

Communicate’s readers are corporate comms specialists, tasked with their company’s corporate PR, internal communications, IR, CSR, public affairs, corporate sponsorship and other aspects of stakeholder relations. Each interviewee will have the chance to provide a 30 second soundbite on a topic of interest to Communicate’s readers. Within seconds of the interview taking place it will be captioned and online

Andrew Thomas, publisher of Communicate magazine commented “Launching ‘Words of Wisdom’ gives us an opportunity to get our readers one stage closer to the subjects on which we write. Our editorial staff are constantly meeting and interviewing some really inspirational people. This is a great way of getting them to share some of their thoughts, and the immediacy of the AudioBoo process provides our readers with constantly updated content.”

Mark Rock, CEO of Audioboo, added: "As the corporate space seeks to understand how social networks are fundamentally changing the way they communicate both internally & externally, we're pleased to work with Communicate to start seeing how tools such as audioboo can facilitate information exchange in this new space".
