Latest news:rewired updates: Meet TapeWrite in the demo area

How can you create and monetise an audio blog in minutes?

TapeWrite, the audio blogging publishing platform – Think Medium.com for your ears – is the latest sponsor of the next news:rewired digital journalism conference, which takes place on 20 July in London.

Instead of wrestling with complicated RSS setups and sending your files to applications with zero social component, TapeWrite allows you to create an audio blog that can be consumed in any social media.

TapeWrite’s online editor also allows you to add interactive cards to the audio, so your listeners can share, bookmark or comment on them. With TapeWrite Premium (in Beta), any independent publisher can easily monetise their content with a pay-per-listen model similar to Spotify or Netflix.

Find TapeWrite’s founder Borja Rojano in one of the demo rooms at news:rewired and find out more about how the platform can work for you.
