Radio Station KTAR Develops Social News Blog

KTAR Radio and Obu Web Technologies partner to develop new social blog for the local Arizona News Radio listening community.

Scottsdale, Arizona, May 30, 2006. — KTAR Radio and Obu Web Technologies partner to create a new Social News Blog for Arizona. Anthony Conti – KTAR Creative Director – and Joshua Strebel – President of Obu, team up to break the boundaries of news talk radio websites!

“By partnering with Obu Web we are able to explore ways to interact with our listeners that in the past was impossible. The new Social Blog will foster an open dialog in the news talk community, enabling greater exchange of ideas and new levels of communication,” said Conti.

“We look forward to working closely with KTAR and Mr. Conti. His vision of creating an interactive experience that allows our local community to be a part of the news reporting and not just the receiver of the news is revolutionary,” said Strebel.

The project is set to launch in late July and is already receiving quite a buzz in the News/Talk arena.
