About NewsAtomic

NewsAtomic was conceived and created by the owners of the Shawangunk Journal, Alex Shiffer and Sharon Richman. It's first iteration has been released to the public, revisions are ongoing.

Here's some of what the Shawangunk Journal's publisher, Amberly Campbell, has to say about it:

The Shawangunk Journal is a print publication, and while print is a great medium — it's mature, human, familiar and tactile... unfortunately, it is slowly being replaced by a medium that is not as time-tested. In the online world, "facts" can be messy, identities can be fudged, "news" can be unreliable. But the online world is here to stay, it seems, and so we have evolved to benefit from and utilize it.

Make no mistake — our print publication isn't going away — we are just adapting to changing times, and print-only publications are just not a sustainable business model anymore. NewsAtomic is simply another delivery system for what we produce — the quality news, information and events you have come to love... community news, locally grown.

NewsAtomic showcases a different format for reading the news, and reading it is a different experience. In print, we have a weekly schedule; stories are due by Wednesday for Thursday print. But now we will have a continuous stream of updated information reaching our readers. There will be so much more, in fact, than what we can squeeze into print. More news, more events, more photos — and you won't have to wait until Thursdays.

Also, in time, NewsAtomic will host other publications and writers — it's not just a forum for us, but for our wider community.

For the last ten years we have had a website, and not a terribly attractive one either, if you want my two cents, and our website will change as well. We will no longer post articles and letters there. Instead you find a link that will bring you to NewsAtomic, to register for free, and read our informative and entertaining pieces there.

And in time, we will have really cool proprietary additions to NewsAtomic, which will make it an even more exciting enterprise... more on that in the future.

Of course, NONE of this would be even remotely possible without our incredible contributors, our sustainers, our subscribers, and our advertisers. We have nothing but gratitude for all of you who believe in us, and keep sustaining us, because you know that a community should be informed, and have a forum that can be a voice of the people, an independent checks and balances for the policy-makers, and a bullhorn for the positive changes happening all around us.

For now, we are celebrating a bit, still working feverishly (even more so!), and we are excited to see folks at the Rosendale Street Fest, Ulster County Fair and, of course, Blueberry Fest, here in Ellenville.

The times are changing, and we are changing with the times.
