Fighting for quality news media in the digital age.

FT moves into social networking

By Press Gazette

The Financial Times has become the latest main stream media organisation to diversify into online social networking.

It has launched a membership forum – costing £2,000 a year – for executives working in digital, new media, mobile and telecoms.

According to the FT, members of the media and technology forum will be able to search-for and contact fellow members, they will receive free passes to FT conferences and events, have access to exclusive networking events and get a premimum subscription to FT.com.

The FT says it is planning to launch similar groups in luxury and property sectors later this year.
