Put your content onto groupthing

groupthing is live - young people can start putting their creative content onto groupthing. groupthing will be fully launched in June 2009.

Libraries, schools and other professionals working with young people and reading can buy a subscription to the site and access the professional side where they can find out what's going on, talk to other professionals and exchange ideas. It's also the place to launch a group page for your young people.

More info

groupthing is the major new initiative we are launching in June. It's a new online community where young people aged 13 to up to 18 can be creative. Based on all forms of words - magazines, non-fiction, manga, graphic novels, plays, scripts, music (lyrics), short stories, film, games, websites, blogs, journalism, fiction, poetry, spoken word and 'how to' manuals. If it's got words in it then it's welcome on groupthing.

Young people will be able to write, review, chat and 'meet' authors on the site as well as publish their own creative work.

We have developed groupthing with young people - they have been involved at every stage. They have helped us to develop the website content and even helped us to decide what it is called. We are working with the RNIB to ensure that the site is accessible and that blind and partially sighted young people can join their sighted peers.
