Corante, "the world’s first blog media company", has launched its new Media Hub. The company has partnered with a network of well respected media bloggers to provide news and commentary on the trends currently affecting the media industry.

Those bloggers contributing to the hub will continue to write on their own blogs; the function of the Media Hub wil be to "aggregate their content and enhance it with technology to help you track 'conversations', and find related content."

As contributor Steve Yelvington explains, the new Corante service is built on the principle that “as information is increasingly becoming an abundant resource and attention is increasingly becoming a scarce resource -- people will subscribe to people instead of subscribing to content.”

Corante describes the Media Hub as the “starting point for keeping abreast of the best writing and thinking on the media industry, the practice of journalism, the rise of social media, and the radical forces reshaping the media landscape.”
