wanabehuman

From the About page at Wanabehuman
"Ideas..." wrote John Maynard Keynes, "when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood...Practical men, who believe themselves...exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist...The power of vested interests is vastly exaggerated compared with the gradual encroachment of ideas."

Blogging since 22 June 2005. We believe every citizen can be a journalist. Wanabehuman is a UK-based weblog founded on the principles of participatory or citizen journalism. We provide a small democratic journalistic forum and provide the tools for our contributors to become good writers and journalists.

We offer direct help from professional editors with style, grammar, structure and more. We’re different from ordinary bloggers because we do not publish all submissions to Wanabehuman. We try to check all articles that are submitted to us, and go through them against our editorial guidelines and standards to ensure accuracy, integrity, truthfulness, balance, diversity of opinion and much more.


This way we can ensure that the competition for the headlines is based purely on the writers’ wit, imagination and journalistic integrity, and not by agenda-setting corporations.


If you are a budding student journalist, or wannabe writer, or even a professional journalist, or just want to try out something a little different, then Wanabehuman can provide an excellent platform for you free thinkers around the world.


We believe that virtue is knowledge.
Go feast your mind upon wanabehuman
