I’m blogging UK Association of Online Publishers’ Online Publishing Conference at the Hilton Park Lane.
The programme for the first half today will look something like this:
- 9am: AOP chairman and Guardian Media Group director of digital strategy Simon Waldman and the conference chairman, BBC media correspondent Torin Douglas make opening remarks
- 9.20am: Caroline Little, chief executive and publisher of Washington Post.Newsweek Interactive, shares her vision for competing in hyper-local markets, while managing a global brand.
- 10am: Meet the aggregators: A panel discussion moderated by Simon Waldman and featuring representatives of search engines and aggregation tools: MSN.co.uk executive producer Peter Bale, Oodle UK GM Duncan Dunlop, Moreover CTO Angus Bankes and Google News business product manager Joshua Cohen.
- 11am: ITV Consumer director Jeff Henry talks about ITV.com’s £20m online venture.
- 12:30pm: NatMags chief exec Duncan Edwards outlines his experiences in attracting, retaining and monetising online audiences.

Then, later this evening, the 2007 Online Publishing Awards will be presented. The shortlist for online publishing’s major awards is remarkable this year for the large number of how well-represented regional news sites are on the shortlists, with several nominations alongside the usual big hitters from the major online-only, national newspaper, broadcast, and magazine brands.
