In seeking a way to add a news information widget that was informative, entertaining, respected, and space saving, WidgetBox, which produces the Zennie Abraham Widget (currently at 426 installs), once again provided the basis for a novel approach. The CNN News video widget.
The CNN News video widget was created specifically for the Zennie62.com blog. It's located in the upper left area of the blog and just above the pages section. Visitors can now see three kinds of videos: Zennie62 on YouTube videos on news, videos, and pop-culture, videos installed for blog posts by Zennie Abraham or Zennie62.com bloggers, and CNN News videos.
What's great about CNN News is that it's an established brand that's well-respected and frankly without the hyper conservative-cut that's come to dominate cable news. While I have been critical of specific CNN shows and some contributors for being racist, the basic respect for the CNN brand has never wavered. I will continue to push my friends at CNN in the future.
CNN iReport Relationship
As the CNN iReport Initiative is a favorite of this space, and this blogger has been on CNN nationally several times, it was only right to include CNN in this major addition to the Zennie62.com blog.
CNN News is an established name that signals international news coverage - just what we want for the changes coming to Zennie62.com. We welcome CNN News to Zennie62.com, as our effort to expand beyond just me, Zennie Abraham, continues to move forward.
CNN is one of the biggest and one of the most followed News Channel
