Shiny Media is pleased to welcome onboard new editors for three of its websites. Following the recent departure of Zara Rabinowicz, Anna Leach - who was recently deputy editor of Time Out's travel website - takes over flagship gadget and lifestyle site, ShinyShiny.tv while Anushka Fernando joins us as editor of leading beauty site, KissandMakeUp.tv. Anushka has worked for BBC Girl Talk as well as Look and Closer magazines. Last but by no means least is Craig Laurenson who is the new editor of Corrieblog.tv. We wish them all luck!
Shiny Media is pleased to announce a partnership with IT experts, Pro IT Service S.R.L, to provide support for its network of websites. The Romanian based firm, which specialises in the Movable Type content management system (CMS), recently migrated all of the Shiny sites to new Pair servers in the US and is currently working closely with Shiny's head of in-house development, Sheldon Daniels, to add increased functionality and improved SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) to the network.
Says Mihai Bocsaru, Managing Director of Pro IT: "Although we have worked with Shiny on various projects in the past, I am pleased that Shiny has decided to cement the relationship by announcing us as their preferred IT supplier. We have recently upgraded the sites to the latest Movable Type platform as well as moved the sites to a new server to cope with growing traffic."
After over two years of life in Shiny Towers Shiny Shiny Ed Zara is off for pastures new. Over the years she has written for just about every Shiny title, but has recently made both Shiny Shiny and Kissandmakeup her own. She has also become one of the faces of Shiny video and has built a cult audience across the globe. We are gutted to see her go. You can keep up with on Twitter
However Shiny Shiny is moving on and entering a new phase in its life. So we need an editor and writers to take it into a new era.
We need tech writers who can deliver intelligent, creative copy about gadgets, the web and all the other esoteric stuff Shiny covers. They also need to be able to review gadgets and talk about them in an engaging way in front of a camera. The writers can be female or male, what matters most is the brilliant copy and video they produce.
They don't have to be Zara - she is, after all, a real one off. Here's how I will remember her...
