2. It's revenues help connect the unconnected and increase opportunity for local enterprise.

Ask a Question

Kudos is given through personalized ‘140-characters or less’ messages that link through to your profile, and come up against content as it’s viewed from the hub.

For a minimum $10 pledge of Kudos, messages get viewed 500 times.

When you purchase Kudos, you’ll be invited to personalize what you’d like your message to say, and where – should someone click on it – you want it to point.

Converting them into microblogs so people can add comments, messages of Kudos can be tweeted and shared on social networks. Before long, you’ll be able to promote them through mobile texts as well. Text replies will be added to comment threads online.

Revenues are distributed among those who take part. 60% goes to Citizen Journalists creating and translating content; 40% to the Investor Co-op for covering basic operational costs and increasing profits for those who invest.

Targeting

As content increases and the hub expands,we’ll be introducing options for targeting Kudos on a particular community, journalist, or group of journalists too.
