What student newspapers can do with Facebook

Dave Lee, editor of The Linc at the University of Lincoln in the UK, offers some tips on what student newspapers can do with Facebook on his blog. Readers suggest some other good ideas in the comments on the post.

Lee started his Student Journalism Blog for the Press Gazette, a London-based newspaper for journalists, in January. The blog offers news and commentary on student journalism across the UK, but really it provides useful information to student journalists around the world. Recent posts have looked at how student newspapers report on student deaths and how Web publishing affects student journalism. You can contact Lee on pged@pressgazette.co.uk.

As we wrote earlier, Sean Blanda of The Temple News also offered some tips on how student newspapers can use Facebook in his blog.
